Hi Soundarya,

No, you can't get admission in IIT Madras or even nay of the IITs on the basis of JEE Main result.

You are required to appear for JEE advance in order to be eligible for admission in IITs. You can take admission in NITs, IIITs and other GFTIs like Punjab college of Engineering, JNU and others on the basis of rank in JEE Main.

You may refer to this article for information about JEE Advanced Eligibility Criteria.

Hey Soundarya,
Yes you definitely can get a seat in IIT Madras or any other IIT in that case if you score a decent rank in JEE ADVANCED.
Work hard, focus yourself on studies, clear your concepts and you definitely will crack IIT.

All The Best,
Thank You.

Hi there,

For getting admission in IIT Madras you need to appear for JEE Advance as well, admission in BTech is not offered solely based on Mains Rank, you need to have a good advance rank for that, for more information about the courses, fees and previous year cut off of IIT Madras please refer this link, https://www.careers360.com/university/indian-institute-of-technology-madras

Hello aspirant,

For getting admission in IIT Madras you need to qualify JEE Advance. You First need to Qualify JEE Mains & then appear/qualify JEE Advance for getting into IIT Madras.

It is not possible to get into IITs by clearing JEE Mains Only.

IITs take admission only through JEE Advance Rank

However , you can get into NITs , IIITs & other GFTIs through JEE Main.

Hope this was helpful.
