Hey Rashmi,
First of all congratulations on your score.Now let me tell you that the cutoff scenario differs every year based upon various factors.So predicting cutoffs are are not easy.Many students have misconceptions between the qualifying cutoffs and the admission cutoffs for various cutoffs.You have met the qualifying cutoff for JEE 2019.But the admission cutoff depends upon various institutes and their norms.There are category wise cutoffs.Based upon your marks you have quite good chances for admission into tne NITs,but you have to wait for the second or third round of cutoffs to be published.The first round cutoffs are always high and you will face high competition since you also belong from general category.The top NITs are:
- Dr BR Ambedhkar National Institute of Technology,Jalandhar
- Malaviya National Institute of Technology,Jaipur
- Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology,Bhopal
- Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology,Allahabad
- NIT,Agartala
- NIT,Arunachal Pradesh

Hi ! No you are not eligible for nit with such low percentile because to get an admission in nit you need to attain 96 Percentile minimum. Your percentile will fetch a rank of 3lacs-4lacs. Still you can check your rank with rank predictor of c360, given below.
