Hello Aspirant, hope you are doing good.

Firstly, congratulations for your score, but I'm really sorry to say that with this score, you can't possibly get into NITs, because they have really high cutoffs, being the second best colleges after IITs. But that doesn't mean there aren't other great colleges.

If you want to know about all the possible colleges that you can get into with your JEE mains score, you can get it here:

Seriously saying in this percentile there is a very slight chances to get seat in nit but if you do hard work then you can do it. You might get seat in low rank nits like meghalaya, assam, etc, so make a proper rank wise list before filling options in counselling. Then stick to the counselling session till the last round and definitely you'll get seat in nit. And if you don't want this long way road then we have short cut option which is our college predictor whose link is below,
