As you rightly pointed, GATE is an entrance exam which is used by all central universities like IITs and NITs for M.Tech admission. Where as GRE is used for Masters admission in USA. You might also need to give TOEFL exams, some institutes need that too. But if you are looking for Masters in other countries (Canada/Australia/China/Hong Kong/Korea/ Japan) you might need to take IELTS along with the university specific test. It actually varies from country to country and course to course. If you have any country in mind and any specific course, can you please elaborate, so that we can help you better.
