Hello Kandela,

Home state quota is applicable to colleges under the JEE Main criteria, in which the colleges like NITs/GFTIs provide somewhat lower cutoff to their homestate students as compared to students from outstations.

Now depending upon your rank, and the state in which you live in/or passed class XII will be considered your homestate. You will get some benefits such as lower cutoffs for admission and 50% reservation of seats.

The rank you have achieved in JEE is your AIR/CRL , but no seperate rank for homestate is given. It is just that a student gets benefit of the home state.

Example,

If you have AIR 1500 and from Delhi,

NIT delhi cutoff(hypothetical)

HS-2000

OS-750

Then being a hs candidate with your AIR you will get admission into NIT Delhi.(hypothetical example).

Dear Student,

as of now there is nothing known as the home state rank in JEE Main. However there is something called as the "Home State Quota" wherein some seats are reserved for the for the home state students in the NITs.
