Gaps in career are not demerits if you have well utilised them. Gaps have to be justified honestly in front of the interviewers at the time of selection whether it be admission in any college or your job interview.
Usually students drop a year for preparation for a particular exam and the panelists are well aware of this fact but if you have any other reason like health issues or family concerns, you can reveal that, they would definitely consider the reasons.
I know of cases where students of 2-3 years without any other internship or job in that tenure, have been admitted to top B-schools.
What matters in the end, is your potential, talent, skills, hard work, determination and confidence that you need to present and portray during your interview.
All the best!!

Hello Dilshad! An year gap in your profile harms your profile a lot while you go for an admission in any decent college. You need to justify that year gap while your personal interview is going on and the explanation should be good. Otherwise it may affect you adversely if you don't give a good explanation.
