Tie Breaking Rules
While assigning the ranks for selection based on GATE score, or composite scores, or the marks in the written test and/or interview,
if there is a tie between two or more candidates, the following rules in that order will be followed for breaking the tie:
- The candidate having higher percentage of aggregate marks in Class 12 or equivalent will be ranked higher.
- If that does not break the tie, then the candidate having higher percentage of aggregate marks in Class 10 will be ranked higher.
- If that does not break the tie, then based on Date of Birth, the candidate senior/older in age will be ranked higher.
- If there is a tie even after this, such candidates will be assigned the same rank.
