Hello Ayan,
The JOSAA releases the top 20 percentile of class 12 boards for NITs, IIITs and GFTIs. If a candidate clears the cut off marks, he is eligible for the NITs , IIITs and GFTIs even if he doesn't score 75% marks. The top 20 percentile of class 12 boards will be considered for admission to the 31 NITs, 23 IIITs and 23 GFTIs even if they don’t score the prescribed minimum 75% marks (65 % in case of SC, ST, and PwD), in class 12 or equivalent.
