You are a strong candidate for a part-time Ph.D. in Computer Science with your M.Tech CGPA of 8.98. However, LPU's part-time Ph.D. programs are primarily based at their main campus in Phagwara, Punjab, and it's unlikely a "Bangalore study centre" would offer the full research and faculty interaction required for a Ph.D.; you should confirm this directly with LPU admissions. Regarding LPUNEST, while there might be some overlap with GATE's Computer Science syllabus, LPUNEST is specifically designed for LPU's admissions and will include a research aptitude section; it's best to consult the official LPUNEST (Ph.D. CSE) syllabus. Finally, yes, LPUNEST has a passing mark or cutoff, and achieving a higher score can also qualify you for a scholarship, as your M.Tech CGPA is excellent, which is a positive factor for admission and scholarship consideration.

Although I am alumni of LPU, I would like to share with you some information about LPU even if I am unaware of the Ph.D. (Part-Time) in CSE at Bangalore. If you excel in research work, getting admitted to a Ph.D. programme is not tough. You should have a strong academic background and be interested in the field of study you wish to enter for your Ph.D. to maximize your chances of admission. While many universities offer the Ph.D. programme, LPU is one of the greatest institutions to complete a Ph.D. at in order to expand your knowledge in the field of research. Let me talk briefly about the LPU Ph.D. programme. Qualifications: You must have earned a master's degree in a field related with at least a 55% grade point average. If you haven't already qualified for a national level test like GATE, UGC NET, CSIR, GPAT, etc., you must do so before you can take the LPUNEST exam. 70% of the selection criteria will be based on the entry. After that, if you pass the interview and attend for it, it will count for 30% of the final decision. You can apply for scholarships based on the National Level Test, popularly known as the LPUNEST. At LPU, female students can receive a unique scholarship to pursue a Ph.D. either full- or part-time. The Flexi-Course Work option, which was created specifically to accommodate professionals, is the program's standout feature and allows students to select the approach that will Option 1: Weekend classes (Saturday & Sunday only) Option 2: Four days of class every month (Preferably every second week: Thu-Sun) Note that LPU does not provide agriculture students with this course option. Option 3: Complete 15 days of study in April or May. Through DBT, GOI's Indo Canadian Impact project, LPU researchers were awarded a significant research funding worth 10,8 million. You can check out the LPU website for further information. Hope this is helpful. Thanks
