Ofcourse you will get a good Nit. Use this formula to predict the rank:
Rank Formula = (100 - your total score) X 874469 /100.
On the basis of rank only the cutoff for college is decided.but this rank may differ from the official cutoff and rank released by national testing agency NTA on the month of April.
Then compare your rank with top Nits cutoff you get an idea.i will provide link from careers 360:

If you have any questions further let me know.
Thank you!!!!
Hii
Congratulations on your success, you have scored a decent percentile and with this percentile you do stand a chance of getting admission in any branch of NIT. But this can not be guaranteed as the cutoffs are yet to be declared for NIT admissions.
You can refer to previous year cutoffs to get an idea about it.

here is the link for the same.
Also the final results are yet to be declared and the ranks will vary after the final results is out. so you need to wait till april for any confirmation on this.
Hope this helps
Thanks!!
