The "session expired" error usually occurs if the page remains idle for too long or if you keep clicking the back button. Ensure that you complete each and every section of the form in 15 to 20 minutes and avoid multitasking during the process. If the issue continues, clear the browser cache, refresh the page and log in to the page using a different browser.

If you've made the payment and didn't get a confirmation, do not make a fresh transaction immediately. Wait for at least 24 to 48 hours, and the status can be checked once you log in again. If the status is not displayed on the dashboard, then check your bank statement and take a screenshot or download the receipt. After that, write an email or contact the GATE helpdesk mentioning complete details, including your GATE application ID.
