Hello aspirant,
As JEE mains is conducted twice this year.You have to wait for the official cut offs which will be released in the month of April.
Your expected rank based on your NTA percentile may be 1,60,027.
But this rank may vary after the second JEE mains exam which will be conducted in the month of April.
As your NTA percentile is not enough to get in nits but based on reservation you may get. Prepare well for the second JEE mains exam.
All the best!!!
Thank you.
