Hello,

Yes, you are eligible.

For lateral entry (Direct Second Year) in Government Polytechnic Nagpur , one of the accepted qualifications is 12th (HSC) with Physics, Chemistry and Math. The minimum required percentage is around 35%.

You have 56% in HSC, so you meet the basic eligibility for Mechanical and Electrical branches.

But keep in mind:

  • Meeting eligibility does not guarantee a seat.

  • Final admission depends on DTE Maharashtra CAP round cut-offs.

  • Cut-offs change every year, so your chance depends on the current year’s competition.

Overall, yes  you are eligible to apply for lateral entry.

Hope it helps !
