Candidates seeking admission to BTech at IIT Gandhinagar are expected to qualify both JEE Main and JEE Advanced and further go through JoSAA counselling to secure admission. However, getting final admission only on the basis of JEE Main score, is not possible. In addition, to be eligible for the BTech programme, candidates must have passed their Class 12 with 75% aggregate. Hence, while JEE Main is the most important starting point to get into IIT Gandhinagar for the flagship course, it is not the only criteria for it.

The qualifying GATE cutoff score is released by the conducting authority and available on GOAPS while the admission cutoffs are released by the individual participating institutes (IIT Gandhinagar in this question's context) and available on their respective counselling portals- GATE COAPS.
