There are two different processes by
which a candidate can apply/ register for GATE, namely,
"online" and "offline".
The registration-cum-application fee for offline applications is
Rs.1000/- for General candidates and Rs.500/- for SC/ST candidates.
The fee for online application is Rs. 900/- for General candidates and
Rs. 400/- for SC/ST candidates. The registration fee is not refundable
and the application form is not transferable.
The online process requires the candidate to fill a Web based
application on the Internet. Online submission of application and
online fee payment can be made by accessing the GATE websites
of IITs
The Offline Application Form along with the Information Brochure can
be obtained in three ways:
-
Forms are sold by designated bank branches in each zone
on payment of the appropriate Registration Fee in cash. Designated
bank branches are listed below.
-

available by Post from the GATE Offices at all IITs and IISc on payment of
appropriate Registration Fee by Demand Draft only, drawn in favour of the

written request to the Chairman GATE of the concerned Institute.
-
