Every year almost fifteen lakh students appear for JEE Mains. Out of this only around two lakhs clear the exam. Which means these two lakh students get an opportunity to attend an NIT or IIIT.

From this two lakhs only thirty thousand clear JEE Advanced. These thirty thousand students get an opportunity to attend IIT.

Again the number of seats offered by different Institutes differ.

Hello Manoj Kumar, Greetings!

So as per 2018 analytics, the total number of seats that are available in IIT's through JEE Mains are about 11,279. While the total number of seats available in NIT's is around 17868. IIIT's have a limited number of seats around 3400.

So if you're from general category, your AIR in JEE Mains should be between 1-25,000 (Considering the reservation for backward classes)

Hope this answer helps you. All the best.
