Hi dear,

If you belong from sc or st category then you have no problem but if you belong from general or obc category you must have under top 20 percentile which will release by your board.Aaccording to last year trend you are in a safe zone.

Hope it helps

Hello,
If you belong to general or obc category then you are not eligible for IIT's, NIT's or GFTI's.Candidates qualifying in the JEE (Advanced) are eligible to admission in the 23 IITs if they satisfy any one of the following criteria: They should score a minimum of 75% in the class XII board examination irrespective of any board whether it is CBSE or any state board. Must be in the top 20 percentile marks of the board exam. For SC/ST students , this criteria is 65%.
Hope it helps you.
