Hello Student,
A rank of 13000 in obc ncl is a bit low of a rank. The cut off for obc for the year 2020 is given to be 74. Due to the competition increasing by the minute everyday, the need for scoring higher marks and scores keep increasing more and more. Hence, unfortunately the top nits and IIITs would be tough to get into with this score. Also other Centrally Funded Technical Institutes ( CFTIs) such as the IITs also would be a bit tough. Some newer NITs might be possible based on the reservation such as NIT Andhra or NIT Pondicherry.
And, since you have mentioned that you belong to the obc category, the chances of you getting into some some of these universities are a bit more. There are some other universities into which you have a good chance of getting into.
Some other good universities with this rank would be:
1. SSN College of Engineering, Chennai
2. SASTRA Deemed to be University, Thanjavur
3. Andhra University, Andhra Pradesh
4. CBIT
5. Delhi university
6. Vasavi College
