Hello,
For being eligible for Jee mains and advanced, you must be scoring 75% marks in class 12 for general category (65% for reservation category) or you must be in the top 20 percentile of your respective board. So even if you satisfy one of them you will be eligible for Jee mains.
Hope it helps

Hiii nitesh....If you belong to Gen/Obc cat you should score75% or should be within top 20 percentile in your 12th exam and if you are from SC/ST, 65% in 12th exam will make you eligible for admission intoNIT/IIIT/CFTI or to take JEE adv subject to fulfilment of other requisite terms & condition.But one thing I would like to add that even if you don't score 75% or 65% as the case may be you can take JEE main and if you score decent marks you may try for:IIITHyd/IIITBhu/IIITRaipur/IIITDelhi/DTU/NSIT/Thapar University etc.There are also many institutes/universities which grant admission on the basis of JEEmain marks /AIR.
