Dear Siva
Yes, you are eligible. Please follow Priyanka's answer.
And I just want to add some points to it.
*Mainly they will see the GATE rank.
* If you're a NSS/NCC candidate.
If you don't have any options in PSU, go and join any IITS so that you'll get more opportunities than you're having now.
All the best
