With such low score you will not be able to get any NIT or GFIT.
You should probably check out for either other Engineering entrance exams or you can go by management quota in private collages to get stream of your choice.
You can also check out list of collages on basis of your jee score from the link given below-

Hi Harish,
I am afraid to say that being a General category student with 72 percentile in JEE Main will be difficult for you to get any decent college worth pursuing engineering and that from CSE or EC branches.
I will advise you to try getting admission from any other examination rank or prepare well for the next year.
Anyway, I would suggest you visit this link for better prediction of college - https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-college-predictor?icn=jee-main-cp-lp&ici=nav-header_engg
All the best.
