If you are an IIT graduate with a BTech degree in Communications Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Electronics and Communication Engineering and have an overall CGPA of 8 and above or more than 75% marks, you can get direct admission for M.Tech Communications Engineering.
Not all IITs offer this exemption so you need to check at their official website to confirm the same. IIT Delhi does offer this option to IIT graduates. Having said that, rest of the candidates must have a valid GATE score for admission to M.Tech Communications Engineering at the top IITs in India.

In the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering exam, the two paper combination is a system that allows candidates to choose at least two papers from a predefined list of combination. This approach was implemented by the GATE conducting bodies to test students' skills and knowledge in different subjects of their discipline. The two-paper combination is categorised into primary and secondary, where candidates can apply their knowledge in the related field.

Dear Girijas,
It's great that you're planning to appear for the GATE exam! Since you are a 2024 pass-out student, you are eligible to apply for GATE, as there is no age limit for candidates. However, you should meet the academic requirements based on your degree, which in your case would be your engineering or relevant undergraduate qualification.
For GATE 2025, registration generally starts in September and the exam is held in February. I recommend you start preparing well in advance by reviewing the syllabus and previous years' papers, and join mock tests to familiarize yourself with the exam pattern.
Best of luck with your preparation
