PSU GATE Cutoff 2026 – Expected Good Score

The GATE score required to get recruited by PSU in 2026 is considered good, varies depending on the branch, category, and the selection criteria of the organisation.

• In general, candidates with a GATE score above 850 are likely to be shortlisted for top PSUs such as IOCL, ONGC, HPCL, and BHEL, in the case of the General category.
• A score of 850 and above is thus considered as excellent to get a high success rate in top PSUs and preferred branches (CSE, ME, EE, EC).
• Scores within the range of 750–850 can be able to get places in medium-level PSUs or in branches where there is an average level of competition.
• While scores around 650–750 may only have a few chances in some PSUs especially for the reserved category (OBC, SC/ST, PwD)
