GATE Application Status: Application Is Not Received At IIT / IISc

There are growing requests about asking a very common question, “I sent the application form by speed post but it say the application is not received at IITs or IISc, what do now?”

There could be several reasons and I will address them one after another.

Stay calm and check again. Before checking, please note that you need to check the status on IIT or IISc website, where you sent your application. For example, I sent my application form to IIT Delhi and if I check the status on IIT Bombay website, it will show that application is not received.
