Hello Kushalapa,
JEE Main Examination is conducted by NTA (from 2019) for Admission to Undergraduate Engineering Programs at NITs, IIITs, Other Centrally Funded Technical Institutions and Institutions funded by participating State Governments.
JEE Main have two papers. Candidates seeking for admission to BE/BTech course have to appear for Paper-1. While candidates seeking for admission to BArch/BPlanning course have to appear for Paper-2.
JEE Main is also a qualifying exam for the JEE Advanced, which a candidate has to clear if he/she is aspiring for admission to the undergraduate programmes offered by the IITs.

JEE Advanced Examination is conducted for admission into various undergraduate programmes across 23 Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). Some other Institutes like Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER), Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) and Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology (RGIPT) also consider JEE Advanced Ranks for admission.
JEE Advanced consists of two papers, Paper 1 and Paper 2, each of 3 hour duration. [Both the papers are compulsory].

To get admission into an IIT, you need to clear both JEE Main and JEE Advanced.
Hope it helps.
