Hello Divyanshu

You have not mentioned your exact % you got in PCM.

As per eligibility criteria , ( for Engineering ) the minimum % required for the candidate in xii board PCM is 50 % required for general category and 45%  SC category.

If you have exact 45% in PCM , then also it works .

But below this % you won't be able to get admission to any institute whatever your marks be in JEE main .


Eligibility for NIT and IIT

• aggregate percentage , for general category aggregate percentage of  75% are required.

• for SC,/ St 65% aggregate are required for counselling and admission.

• 60% in PCM are required.

For CBSE candidate you must be in top 20 % percentile

It is Mandatory.

Coming to admission in nsit  :-
NSIT requires following eligibility criteria yo be met

There is relaxation of 10% for SC or St . That means SC or St candidate should have got minimum 50% in PCM in FIRST ATTEMPT fo admission in NSIT.
It is Mandatory.
