Hi

With 89.172 percentile


Your obc rank will be around 35000.

With above  rank, you have very low  chances in NITs , IIITs.

For example,

NITS

Closing rank for some of the lower NITs for OBC  category under other state is provided below in 6th round of josaa counselling 2020 :-

B.Tech/B.Arch Admissions OPEN

Apply to Amrita University B.Tech 2026

  • NIT Mizoram ,civil engineering :- 14730 obc rank

  • Nit nagaland :- Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology) :-  15340 obc rank

  • National Institute of Technology AgartalaProduction Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology :- 15659  obc rank


You can verify the above at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

So, to get a seat in NIT you should get at least around 15000 OBC rank i. e around 95 percentile .

IIITs

You have low chance in IIITs

When we go through previous year trend then ,

Closing rank for some of the IIITs for which closing rank goes low are listed below along with their closing rank in the 6th round of josaa counselling 2020 for obc category  :-


  • Indian Institute of Information Technology, Agartala,  Computer Science and Engineering  :- 14775 obc rank

  • Indian Institute of Information Technology Bhopal, Information Technology:- 14417 obc rank

  • Indian Institute of Information Technology(IIIT) Dharwad, Electronics and Communication Engineering (4 Years, Bachelor of Technology):- 15280 obc rank

  • Indian Institute of Information Technology Bhagalpur, Mechatronics Engineering:- 16682  obc rank


You can verify the above at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

So, to get a seat in IIITs you should get target at least around 15,000 - 16,000 OBC rank i. e  around at least 94.5 - 95 percentile .

This has been predicted on the basis of past year data but  cut off/closing rank for colleges keeps changing every year depending upon many factors like number of students that appeared in the examination, difficulty level of the JEE main question paper for different shifts etc
