Hey sukumar

You will be applying for GATE in your 7th semester and will be taking the exam in your 8th semester.So , you still have time to clear the backlog even before applying. Anyway, even if you have a backlog you can still apply and give GATE. But you have to clear it before he counselling process.

Hope this helped

All the best
