Hello Aspirant,

As you have asked that the percentile requires or cut-off to qualify for JEE-Advance. From previous year data the cut-off for qualify JEE Advance round is 72 percentile but it may vary this year that the cut-off for this year may be less than 72 percentile or may be more than 72 percentile so, at instant time there is no such cut-off is released for JEE Advance student . Until the National Testing Agency not released any date for cut-off . I think that it may release the cut- of after the second phase entrance exam.

So, Don't worry about the cut-off it may vary between 70 to 80 percentile for Obc candidate.

Hope this helps you.
