does NITIE has sectional cutoff for cat?

NITIE considers only the overall CAT percentile and doesn't have any specific cutoff for each section. The shortlisting is strictly based on your performance in CAT. It requires a minimum of 97 percentile in CAT and 60 percent in graduation for general candidates. For reserved candidates it is 75 for OBC and 65 each for SC and ST. But even for reserved candidates it is always better to score more than 80 percentile to be on a safer side as NITIE is a tier 1 college and there's always a huge competition for that.

All the very best
