Registration for GATE 2027 opens on August 27 at gate2027.iitm.ac.in. The national exam, held February 6-21, qualifies candidates for ME, MTech and PhD programmes at institutions under the Ministry of Education. Women, SC, ST and PwD candidates pay Rs 1,000 per paper, all others pay Rs 2,000.

The regular deadline to apply without late fee is September 27. Candidates who apply by October 5 will pay an extra Rs 500 per paper. The correction window runs October 14-21. Several public sector undertakings use GATE scores for recruitment.
Both sources treat GATE 2027 registration as a straightforward service announcement. NDTV leads with the date and a warning about documents, ABP Live leads with the start of registration and lists fees and PSU opportunities. The framing choices reflect no news judgment difference: ABP Live adds context on fee structure and PSU recruitment, NDTV keeps to procedural advice. The uniform straight reporting means the substance is identical. What matters is the September 27 regular deadline, late applicants pay Rs 500 more per paper.
