Hi

It is completely ok, even if you don't have chemistry in your 12th but do you have  Biology or Biotechnology or Technical Vocational Subject in place in chemistry?

This is because,

• Chemistry

• or Biology

• or Biotechnology

• or Technical Vocational Subject.

You can check the same on the page number 21 of jee main information brochure, the link to download it is provided below :-
