Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering registration on gate2026.iitr.ac.in requires a recent passport photograph and signature upload. GATE assesses undergraduate engineering and science knowledge. Scores are used for M.Tech / PhD admissions and PSU recruitment.

Portal tip: After compressing here, open the live GATE application on gate2026.iitr.ac.in and use the portal preview before paying the fee — rejected uploads are a common reason candidates miss the closing date.

GATE photo & signature requirements

On GATE forms, IITs / IISc (on rotation) usually accepts JPEG/JPG only. Target 5–200 KB for the photo and 5–200 KB for the signature; photo dimensions are often 240 × 320 px. Re-check the active PDF on gate2026.iitr.ac.in before you pay the fee.

Document File size Dimensions Format
Passport photo 5–200 KB 240 × 320 px JPEG / JPG
Signature 5–200 KB White background, sign in black ink JPEG / JPG

Photo tips for GATE

  • SSC's ssc.gov.in portal shows a live file-size readout — compress to the middle of the allowed KB band so a re-save does not push you over the max.
  • Use a plain white or light-coloured background; SSC sample images show ears visible and no cap or sunglasses.
  • Technical recruitments (ISRO, GATE-based posts) may allow slightly smaller minimum KB — still verify the engineering branch notification.
  • GATE on gate.iitk.ac.in allows 5–200 KB — wide band; aim for crisp focus on face for admit card print quality.

Signature tips

  • Sign on white A4 paper with black or blue ballpoint pen, scan flat without notebook lines, then compress to the signature KB cap.

How to resize for GATE

  1. Open the active SSC notification PDF and note photo/signature KB (and pixel size if listed).
  2. Capture a recent colour passport photo in daylight; avoid beauty filters that change facial features.
  3. Compress photo and signature separately in the tool above, staying inside the published min–max KB range.
  4. Upload to the SSC registration module and check the on-screen preview before final submission.
  5. Keep the same files for document verification — SSC often compares live appearance with the uploaded photo.
  6. If the portal rejects the file, fine-tune using the general Sarkari Photo Resizer.

Common mistakes on GATE forms

  • Using an ID-card scan or WhatsApp-forwarded image instead of a proper passport-style photo.
  • Signature on ruled paper with lines visible after scanning.
  • Over-compressing below the minimum KB — some SSC forms reject files that are too small.
  • Uploading PNG when the portal dropdown only lists JPG/JPEG.
