Is there any other way to apply for M.Tech in NIT and IIT except GATE?

Hi Suyash,
Yes, you can take admission into M-tech course without GATE score card. You can take admission in state technical university affiliated colleges by appearing for an entrance exam conducted every year by respective state university/colleges etc.
With Gate score you may take admission in some renowned institute's like IIT's, NIT's, BIT's etc.
I Hope this information helps. Please feel free to revert.
Wish you luck. -
Hello Suyash,
Admission to Indian Institute of Technology (IITs) or National Institute of Technology (NITs) without GATE score (NON-GATE):
Most of the students cannot imagine going to IITs without tough completion, which is a correct assumption. But there are ways to get into IITs and NITs without GATE scores too. Below are the possible cases.
Sponsored Candidates: If you are working in industry for over three year and can prove that your employer is ready to allow you to go to study by letters from authority, you can apply under this category.
There are few seats reserved under this category in both IITs and NITs.
