Candidates need to apply Online for GATE -2014 as per the information provided on the websites.
They should wait for the admit card to get the GATE 2014 registration number

The candidates will receive their  GATE-2014 Registration Number printed on their admit card.
On receipt of GATE registration number, the candidates need to apply On-line for NTPC ET-2014 on the website  www.ntpccareers.net
from 20.12.2013 to 18.01.2014.
Registration fees (non-refundable) : 
General/ OBC category is required to pay a registration fee of Rs. 150/-. 
The SC / ST/ PWD category candidate need not pay the registration fee.
State Bank of India has been authorised to collect the registration  fee, in a specially opened account (No. 30987919993) at CAG branch, New Delhi, on behalf of NTPC. Candidate has to approach  the nearby SBI branch with a printout of the “pay-in-slip” which is available  on the application registration  portal. The pay-in-slip  printed from the portal should only be used for depositing  the fee for proper crediting  of amount  in the allocated  account.  On receipt of the money, the bank will issue a unique Journal Number and a Branch Code of the bank collecting the money. 
This journal number and the branch code are to be filled up by the candidate during online registration. 
NTPC Online Application : 
Read the instructions carefully and fill-in the On-line application form giving accurate information including the GATE-2014 registration number and payment details. After successful registration, system  will  generate a Unique Application Number. Candidates are  required  to keep  the printout of the Application slip which will be generated by the system after successful registration.
Please ensure that the GATE registration  number,  which is mentioned  on your GATE-2014 Admit card, is filled up correctly. Name should also be filled up as appearing in GATE -2014 Admit card. 
Note : No request with respect to the change in any data entered by the candidate will be entertained once the application is submitted successfully.
