Hello.
I n JEE mains there is percentile criteria so I can tell you that how rank can be calculated in JEE mains, you can understand it with the below formula:
((100- your total percentile score) x total number of candidates appeared in exam)/100.
Total number of candidates appeared for the January exam: 869010
if you are considering for April exam then you can assume that the number of candidates will increase to 12,00000.
above formula can help you to understand that how rank is calculated in the JEE mains exam organised by NTA.
But if you want to know what score you had with this percentile so it is difficult to give you an exact data but still I am providing a link below where you can take help of a given chart and can predict your approx score.

Best of luck.
