The first thing is you have not referenced whether it is for B.Tech or M.Tech.

If it is for M.Tech/ME you ought to qualify for GATE and secure a decent position that is under 5000.

Getting a great position in PGECET may not give you a seat because after filling the last position of GATE just they will begin rank 1 of PGECET. So in my view for the most part GATE, qualified understudies will arrive.

On the off chance that you got fewer positions, apply for SF(self-finance) standard as you need to pay 10k extra per semester.
