Hi Jeevan,
The NTA has normalised the marks scored by the students into percentile. Although no one has specific information that could help to know the procedure used but you can refer the below link to know your approx score.

Your marks may be around 57-48.
Now coming to second part of your question, the qualifying cutoff for JEE advance will be notified after the April session exam. Last year qualifying cutoff for EWS was 78.21. So you may be able to clear it.
Hello Aspirant,
The calculation of the marks & rank would be difficult based on your percentile but this score seems enough to qualify for JEE Advanced. To know your admission possibilities, You can also use JEE Main college predictor tool given below.
100 - your total percentile score is the percentage of people ahead of you. 874469 are the number of candidates appeared for Jan exam. So rank formula is (100 - your total score) X 869010 /100. If the number of candidates for April exam increased to 1200000 then your final rank shall be (100 - your total score) X 1200000/100.
Using the formula- (100-79.6925098) X 869010 / 100
Your probable rank will be 1,76,474.
Good Luck!
