The minimum GATE score to get admission to IIT Bombay for M.Tech can depend on the branch applying for. However, the expected minimum GATE score (on the basis of past year cutoff trends) is 710 to 750+. This is the cutoff score for top branches like CSE, and ME. It can vary for differet subjects/branches.
