Hi

Making  prediction is difficult as  cutoff  depends upon various factors like :-

-----------) number of students/ candidates  that appeared in the  jee main exam,

-----------) number of available seats,

-----------) performance of different students in the examination,

-----------) the branch you want,

-----------) the category you belong etc.

-----------) your rank in jee main


But yes,

When we go through previous year trend then

>>>>>>> With  19377 obc rank,

You have  low chance in any NITs .

For example,

Under other state quota , closing rank for some of the nits for which closing rank goes low are listed below along with their closing rank in the 6th round of josaa counselling 2020   :-

  • Nit nagaland :- Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology) :-  15340 obc rank

  • National Institute of Technology Agartala :- Production Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology :- 15659  obc rank

  • National Institute of Technology, Surat:-Chemistry (5 Years, Integrated Master of Science):-16453 obc rank


You can verify the above at

So, to get a seat in NIT you should get at least around 15000 - 16000 OBC rank

But yes,

You have chances in GFTIs like


-----------) National Institute of Foundry & Forge Technology, Hatia, Ranchi:- Metallurgy and Materials Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology):-  20554 obc rank

-----------) Institute of Technology, Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya (A Central University), Bilaspur, (C.G.):- mechanical engineering:- 20949 obc rank

-----------) Gurukula Kangri Vishwavidyalaya, Haridwar:- mechanical engineering:-21127 obc rank


-----------) Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering and Technology:- Food Technology:- 21480 obc rank


-----------) Institute of Technology, Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya (A Central University), Bilaspur, (C.G.) :- Industrial and Production Engineering:- 21390 obc rank


And a few more

This prediction of colleges is  based of past year data but  cut off or closing rank changes every year depending upon many factors like the number of students that give the examination, difficulty level of the JEE main  for different shifts etc so
