Hello Ranjit,

For M.Tech admission in IITs , post-graduation percentage is not required if you have a B.Tech/B.E. degree. Admission is based on GATE score .

If you are applying with an M.Sc. (for science streams like Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, etc.) , you generally need at least 55% (General/OBC) or 50% (SC/ST/PwD) in post-graduation, along with a valid GATE score .


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

To get admission into an IIT for an M.Tech program, you typically need a good GATE score and a bachelor's degree in engineering with a minimum of around 60% aggregate marks (depending on the IIT and specific program), which translates to a CGPA of around 6.5 or higher; a high percentage in your post-graduation is not the primary factor, but a strong GATE score is crucial for admission.


The most important factor for M.Tech admission in IITs is your GATE score. As this the deciding factor for admission but this varies from year to year, so a top 99 percentile would always be the recommendation.
