IIT Madras reopens GATE 2027 registration with a late fee around mid-October 2026, and also provides an application correction window for registered candidates. Several outlets report different late-fee and registration end dates, with timelines citing October 12 and October 16 as possible cutoffs, alongside late-fee eligibility. Candidates are directed to apply or complete pending steps via the official GOAPS portal.
Outlets also agree that a correction facility opens after registration closes, running from October 14 to October 21, 2026. Through this window, candidates can edit only permitted fields such as personal details (including name, category, gender) and the examination city. Some changes may require an additional fee, depending on the type of correction.
For the examination itself, reporting states that GATE 2027 is scheduled for multiple dates in February 2027 (including February 6, 7, 13, 14, 20 and 21). Coverage includes 30 test papers, with Robotics and Automation listed as a new test paper in at least one account. Results are reported as due on March 19, 2027.
