But I suggest if you are not doing any other course along with cs, complete your articleship soon otherwise you will not get job only on the basis of clearing cs final...

earlier the better. Also check for exemptions/ set-off if applicable to your case.

Actually I heard somewhere that immeditely after completion of executive programme,

we can either join articles

(or)

complete professional programme and then do our 15 months of articleship.

Is that true?

Once you start CA articleship, you won't be able to pursue any other internship.

With regards to set off. No, you cannot claim set off against CA internship. However, you can continue CS without doing the internship and later on claim set off against various clauses in CS regulations (including one that provides exemption in case of 3 years' CA practice).
