You are not eligible.

According to MHRD, apart from admissions to IITs, the qualifying marks for admission to NITs, IIITs and GFTIs have also been revised.

As per the notification, for candidates to qualify for admissions to NITs/IIITs/GFTIs, they should have secured at least 75% marks in class 12th exam or be in the top 20 percentile in the class 12th exam conducted by the respective boards.

For SC/ST candidates, the eligibility criteria is 65% marks in class 12th.

Rest educational, age criteria and other eligibility you can check here:

You can apply in other engineering exams like bits, vit etc and other engineering exams.
Also some of the colleges you can apply in through jee main, check the link below

But the eligibility criteria is different for all colleges and minimum requirement is 60%.


So you have to check which all colleges can take you up through jee main with less than 75% other than IIIT, GFTI and NIT's.
