Respected sir,

Let me make it very clear that GATE score is valid for 3 year.But PSU don't consider the old GATE score, they only rely on recent year GATE score.Secondly some IITs don't consider GATE score which are older than 2 academic year.Same is the case for admission in NITs. So the way you are thinking is not possible because PSU don't consider old GATE score.

Thank you.

Best of luck for you future.

Hey Zainab

The score card of GATE is valid for a period of three years. Your score is only valid when it is above or equal to the score of qualifying marks. For example - if you have 16 marks and the qualifying marks for that year are mentioned as 25, then your Gate score is not valid.
You can find the complete details of the score card of GATE 2018 in the following link :-

Feel free to ask if you have any more query.GOOD LUCK.
