A suit would be better, but it is not mandatory. Well polished shoes with matching belt should be ensured. Females should go with saree or salwar kurta. In case, you want to wear western attire, then light colored shirts with trousers should be okay.
Ensure that you get a good night’s sleep of 7-8 hours the day before the interview. It is always better to have a good rest rather than try to mug up at the last moment. Remember, you have prepared well enough for the interview all these days, so sleep adequately.
Ensure that your cell phone is switched off or on silent mode before entering the interview hall. It makes a very bad impression on the interview panel if your cell phone were to ring during the interview.
Maintain a pleasant demeanor during the interview and make sure to thank the interviewer(s) at the end of the interview for giving you their time.
