Hello there,
Getting a seat in the top branches of good NITs and IIITs is tough, since the competition is very high. Don't worry, you can get there if you study well and perform good in your JEE Main exam. For getting into NITs and IIITs, you need to score atleast 99+ percentile. If you are from the general category, and aiming for the top branches, then you need to have a rank between 1-1000 to get into these colleges.

You can check the cut-off rank of all the NITs in the link given below:

You can check the cut-off rank of all the IIITs in thee link given below:

Also note that the cut-off rank changes every year depending on the difficulty of the paper, and the number of candidates appearing for it.
