First of all, there is no fixed cutoff for MS at any institute. The students are called as per the needs of the concerned professor and the cutoff does not matter. Students are screened through a thorough process including a separate written exam followed by an exam interview. Nevertheless, I have tabulated the IIT Palakkad GATE cutoff 2022 for various categories below

After an individual clears the cut-off he/she is called in for a written test. The test is organized by the college itself. Students are given the syllabus for the test and some time beforehand to prepare for it. The test which is conducted is in written form. Students are expected to write open ended and long answers.
Students who clear the written test are then called in for an interview. During the interview an individual’s knowledge and grasp on the subjects, and personality is assessed. Students are given then judged based on the overall score obtained in both the written and interview round.
As there are only 20 seats in each stream, hence competition is a lot and students must prepare diligently to ace the admission process.
