Hello,

In the first place, you need not apply your EWS certificate while filling the GATE 2020 application as cutoff for GATE 2020 for General and General-EWS is SAME. (There is no relaxation in cutoff or fee).

Moreover, if you don't have a valid EWS Certificate during admission, you will be considered as a General Category Candidate. (This actually means, it won't make any difference in your admission).

But GATE has nothing to do with subsequent process of admission. Therefore, it is advisable to use your certificate to avail any provisions offered exclusively by University.

IITs have fee waiver like relaxations for candidates with EWS certificate.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
