Dear Aspirant,

There is a slight chance you might get into your home state NIT and that too in lower branches like Metallurgical. However, you could get into some lower NITs also with a much decent branch like:-

• NIT Uttarakhand
• NIT, Puducherry
• NIT, Imphal

However, if this is your first attempt, I suggest that you should take a drop year and try to prepare for the exam with full dedication. Try to bring your General Rank under 30k, then many good colleges and NITs will give you admission.

Here are a few links to help you further:

Hello Sangani. Sangani you have a great rank in JEE Mains but unfortunately this rank is not enough to get admission in NITs even if you belong to OBC category. Even if you managed to get admission in any NITs you will not be able to get your desired branch. So my suggestion to you is to search for good private university where you can thrive yourself to your better self.
