Hello,
With 97.8 percentile in JEE mains, your rank would be around 20000 to 25000 in the CRL list. Also, as you belong to OBC category, your rank would be very good. You can get some core branches in the newer NITs. Also, you might get core branches in the IIITs. Due to your OBC category, you might get core branches in the older NITs during the last rounds of JOSAA counseling and the CSAB spot round.
Please use the JEE mains college predictor by Careers 360 to get detailed idea about your probable colleges according to your JEE mains rank and category. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-college-predictor&ved=2ahUKEwiu-Memnc_qAhVRxDgGHddOAZ8QtwIwAXoECAMQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1pTMu5LewXe0n3JPiA8V2U
