To give the IIT JAM exam, 3 years gap will not any hurdle.
Yes, you or anyone can still give an exam with a gap after the bachelor's degree programme. But if you clear the TIFR exam then they might ask you for such a long period of gap after the Bachelor's degree programme, ( during the interview ).

At present, the IIT JAM organizing institute has clarified that candidate needs only to pass the Bachelor's degree program. Minimum CGPA criteria for eligibility are removed. This is as per the year 2022 notification. However, to take admission into IIT through the IIT JAM examination, one needs to crack the IIT JAM exam with a good rank. Mainly less than 700 rank for general category students.
