Hi neha !
It does not matter how you have scored in your semesters .Your overall cgpa will be taken into consideration while determining the eligibility criteria for iit jam exam .So check out your aggregate cgp . In most colleges it is clearly show on your results what's your aggregate cgpi is . So yes if you have less than 5.5 cgpa in one of your semester you are still eligible
