Hi aspirant

See percentile depends on number of students appeared and how much marks they are scoring.If you have got 89%ile it means there are 11% of the total students who have appeared have scored more marks than you.

It may happen that there are students who have scored 139+ and this affects your percentile.

Or it may happen there is some mistakes in your result because as per previous year trends 139 marks can fetch you 95+ percentile.
