Hello there,
According to the formula, [100-87.89*869010/100], your All India Rank is 105237 approximately. Since you belong to the SC category, your category rank is around 11000 approximately. Analysing the previous year data, you have fair chances of getting a seat in the NITs. You haven't mentioned your home state. You can have chances only if you come under the Home State Quota.
