The cut-off marks for the OBC-NCL category varies from year to year. If we analyse the cut-off marks for previous few years, we get the following data:

2017: 49 marks out of 360

2018: 45 marks out of 360

From 2019, the system changed from traditional marks based to percentile based, and if we have a look at the qualifying percentiles for the OBC-NCL category from 2019, we get the following data:

2019: 74.3166557 percentile

2020: 72.8887969 percentile

2021: 68.0234447 percentile

However, it must be noted that these are the qualifying percentiles, or on getting this percentile, you will be declared as a qualified candidate, however, admission is not guaranteed at these percentiles.

So, we can say that a safe percentile for qualifying the JEE Main for an OBC candidate will be around 75 percentile.
