Hello aspirant,

Admission to M.Tech in IITs is independent of this constraint. But as prescribed by most of the IITs, you must pass your B.Tech with at least 6.75 CGPA or 60% marks. Now, you had backlogs or yearback does not matter. After the end of B.Tech, you must have the above marks to be eligible for applying. What will matter most is your gate score. Some of the IITs select candidates as, 80% Gate Score+20%B.Tech marks. Some IITs may take a written test or an interview. But key is GATE.

So, to be brief, there is no notification anywhere, in any IITs that you can not enter there if you have Backlogs or yearback. You just need to have the prescribed marks in B.Tech for admission. So, start preparing from today, clear your fundamental base, prepare for GATE and obtain high GATE score.

Also your backlogs will not affect your placements in M.Tech. The only thing you need to get placed is that you must have the skills what the company requires. So don't worry about it.

Hope this will be helpful...
