Hello,

As per your query, i i would say that its not possible the way you asked. As you filled up for gate for admission for mtech in iit, as a general candidate, you will get gen category marks and rank.

You can't get a seat with obc category as you will not get your obc rank. You can avail your seat onlu through gen category only for iit.

Good luck
