<TThrottle><HN:Rishi><PV 2.10><AC 1><TC 39><TG 62><NV 1><NA 1><DC 100><DG 100><CT0 39.0><GT0 61.7><GT1 57.0><GT4 0.0><GT5 0.0>

Looks like GT0 is the NVidia and GT1 the ATI on this system. 
And by <NV 1> and <NA 1> it looks like it's correctly passing the GPU identities.
But on BT both GPU temps report as 61.7.

Looks fine on the TThrottle side.
Go to Menu: Extra -> BoincTasks settings -> Tasks and remove the check at "Condense Use column"
What's in the Use column of the NVIDIA and ATA card. A screenshot maybe, because the text has to be pretty exact?
Another way may be to copy the lines from the history.

0.01 CPUs + 1.00 NVIDIA GPUs
0.02 CPUs + 1.00 ATI GPUs

There's no (device 0) or (device 1) on these.

Puzzling, everything checks out ok.
Something else to check, it uses the same detector to see if the GPU is ATI.

Enable the debt column and see if you got the right debt for the ATI and the NVIDIA.
The debt should be the same as in the Project tab, select the same project and with the right mouse key select properties.

The debts are 0 as Collatz is the only GPU project running on that machine.  The debts are also 0 for the GPU projects on my other machines that have MW set to project priority 333 and Collatz set to project priority 0.  Checkpoints do seem to be showing separately and correctly on the mixed GPU machine running Collatz.  Progress %, Elapsed Time and Time Left are all correct.  Only the ATI temp is incorrect.

I will build in some debug info in the next version, to check what is going on.

Use version 0.73:

Change the following file: C:\Program Files\eFMer\BoincTasks\log\log.xml
Set the ONLY the following to 1:
      <tthrottle_read>      1   </tthrottle_read>
      <temperature_gpu>   1   </temperature_gpu>

Select only the mixed NVIDIA / ATI computer in computers.
Exit BoincTasks and restart it.
Menu: Show->Log and check "debug"

Let it run a couple of seconds to get about 3 readings.

Remove the debug check and send me the log, lets see if that tells me something useful.

Sorry this took so long.  Used v0.73:

Tried an experiment: pausing the NVidia GPU causes the BT temp to equal the ATI temp after the NVidia temp drops, so I think what's getting reported for both cards is the GpuMax.

Also noticing that the new BT versions are using MUCH more CPU time than v0.73 (about 5x on my machines) and at the same time don't seem to update as well.

Ok now I see what's going wrong, I hope V 0.77 will solve this.
No idea about the CPU time, check 0.77 when it comes out.

Works like a charm.  Both GPUs are reporting correct temps

Took a while but was worth it.  Thanks for all the hard work!
