For admission shortlisting, the authorities will check the GATE 2026 rank of the candidates.
While some PSU recruitment through GATE selects candidates based on their secured scores, many use GATE scores for shortlisting purposes. Tests, personal interviews, or group discussions may be additionally held for recruitment purposes.
A service bond agreement may have to be signed by the candidates if selected by a PSU. The candidates are advised to check the service bond carefully.
Candidates have to note that the cutoffs listed above are previous years’ cutoffs. The cutoff will differ for each PSU and the discipline of the candidate.

Hello,
You can change your category in the GATE application by logging into the GOAPS portal during the correction window and using the "Edit GATE Application Form" option to make the change. You will likely need to pay an additional fee for the change and may need to provide a valid category certificate.
I hope it will clear your query!!
