Hello dear student

  • Yes you can get admission through gate examination but you must For SC/ST/PH category students, minimum performance in the qualifying degree with postgraduate qualifications (first two rows) is relaxed from 60% to 55% (6.75 to 6.25)

  • GATE score requirement from 300 to 200

  • But  GATE score is not mandatory for PhD programme in IITs.
  • Assuming that you have qualified GATE during M Tech admission, it will help you in shortlisting process even if it is not valid. However,
  • some of the IITs may ask for a valid GATE score.

Hope that's helpful

Best of luck
