Dear Anindya
since you are in the first year you should not worry about coaching now. study your courses well till 3rd year and after 3rd year you will have more time and you can join the coaching. if you study your courses well then GATE will be very easy for you.
All the best.

Well you are in 1st year right now, there is enough time for your preparations for gate exam. I will recommend you to start taking coaching after completing your 3rd year. There are many good institutes like The Gate Coach, Engineers Institute of India, Made Easy, IES Academy & etc that you can join while doing your college.
