    No, if you have qualified for the GATE exam, you do not need to appear in the Karnataka PGCET to take admission in the M.Tech course.

    No. Students who have a valid GATE score can just submit their score card and a separate merit list will be prepared for them for M.Tech in Karnataka, they don't even have to and more importantly can't take the exam of PGCET as per KEA guidelines. If your GATE score is low, then just click a Non-GATE scorer option in PGCET application form and write PGCET.
