GATE was a disaster so how could I miss this opportunity, so as everyone did I too enrolled myself for the same. On March 1 st 2014, maximum of the students received hall tickets for the exam to be held on 8 th March 2014, with many left behind, bearing no mail for the hall ticket. Obviously how could I have got things easily done; even I was among those, who didn’t receive the hall ticket.  Ankit and Sourav told me to call on the toll free number and also mail to the TCS support email id.
