Hello Sir,
As I mentioned in previous posts there are no Reservations for PIO and OCI card holders even though Parents (if Indian Citizens) qualify. The procedure is same for all IITs . Fees may vary. So, it doesn't matter whether you are PIO , OCI or Indian citizen when it comes to IIT admission.
Thank you!
