Hello Aspirant,
See as of now the cut-offs for this year has not released yet so it is little bit difficult to decide whether you will qualify or not but however I can guide you on the basis of previous year's data. So last year cut-off for OBC category was 74.3166 percentile and you have scored 71 percentile so it implies that you are on margin line, anything can be happened.
I would recommend you to appear for second attempt of JEE-Main which is scheduled from September 1st-6th and try to hit the target of at least 92-93 percentile if you want to take admission to any good college but if you wants to only qualify the exam then you should try to score at least 77 percentile.

You can use JEE-Main College Predictor to predict your college according to your percentile and category, link for the same is given below :-
I hope this information cleared your doubts.
Good Luck!!
