Hello student,

IIT Delhi mechanical and PSUS both are equally good at their places as we have to clear gate examination for both the sector. PSUS are not completely government or it may be possible that it is privatized by government authority. But I prefer that PSUS is better than IIT Delhi private jobs. In PSUS your average CTC is 18 LPA or more and you will get job just after clearing the gate. But in IIT Delhi, after completing your master's degree you will get the average CTC of 8 LPA. Thtswhy most of the students go through PSUS. PSUS  have a good lifestyle and you will save yourself from the fear of losing jobs and less saving problem as they mostly seen in private jobs. PSUS itself provide no reservation to the candidates but the GATE examination will provide 7.5% reservation for SC candidates.

Hello student,

I would suggest give your best for PSUs. Working In any PSU gives you good work experience and a lavish lifestyle. The pay scale is very good with perks such as housing rent, medical and many other benefits at par with government sector jobs.
It's a very respected job and pays you decently.

Now coming to GATE. No gate exam is not very tough if you carry out proper planned study and cover all the subjects and topics in detail. A lot of practice and discipline is required.
Since you belong to SC category, there are reservations for your category.
Getting selected in a PSU requires a score of 70+ in GATE exam.

I hope you find this helpful.
All the best!
