61 marks would fetch you a percentile around  82.59-85.34. and rank somewhere between 1.7lakh-1.9lakh.  now these are based on previous year analysis .As of now its tough to say because the analysis and also cutoffs change every year due to many factors like total students appearing for exam,difficulty level of paper etc. work hard and improve your score in the upcoming jee main sessions.for your rank you have tough to no chances to fetch a seat in government colleges but you can try in private engineering colleges .for more information to get a personalised report on what all chances you have for your rank refer to: https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-college-predictor?icn=QnA&ici=qna_answer

Hope this helps,

Thankyou.

Hi


I am assuming that you are from general category

With 61 marks

Your profile suggest that your home state in Odisha . You no chance in NITs/IIITs/CFTIs with above predicted rank


With  82.67 - 85.79 percentile, you may not qualify jee main as per past year trends if you belong to general category

For example,

In 2020, qualifying cutoff for general category was 90.3765335 and jee main 2021 expected qualifying cut off percentile is 90-95 percentile.
