Yes, you are certainly eligible to attend GATE 2015 Examination. The minimum educational qualification required is " Bachelor Degree in Engineering/ Technology or Architecture" obtained from a recognized university. Those who have done B.E/ B.Tech/ B.Arch (4 years after 10+2) and those who are presently pursuing final year of such programs are also eligible to apply for GATE Examination.

Since you have completed "Bachelor Degree in Engineering" from a recognized university, you are absolutely eligible to appear for examination. Candidates having "Diploma" alone as an educational qualification are not eligible to appear for GATE examination. And also 3rd year Diploma candidates are also not eligible to appear for GATE 2015. Even though you are a diploma holder, you have also completed B.Tech (Electrical and Electronics Engineering). So no doubt, you can attend GATE 2015 Examination which is going to be held in February, 2015.
