Hello Sampath,
You cannot get good NIT,IIIT if you are general candidate.
For getting good NIT, IIITs in CS branch candidate rank should be around 10000 .
For getting such rank percentile of candidate should be 98.
OBC candidate have 6-7 percentile margin from general candidate.
You able to get GFTI,CFTI with this percentile.
You should try for April Jee to increase your percentile for good NIT.
To increase your percentile in a limited time you should do model question paper.
If you have any questions remain than comment below.
Good luck...
