Hey Anuj,
Yes, if your rank is less than previous opening rank of a NIT then you have great chance to get into that NIT this year.
For being in the range of the previous cutoff your rank should be below the closing rank of that NIT.
Example- if the opening rank of a NIT is 500 and closing rank is 1000 then anything below 1000 has a chance to get into NIT.
Hope it was useful for you.
Feel free to contact us for any queries.
All the best :)

That's also below 1000 so you have very good chance. Upper limit shows that it was the highest rank applied to the college.

Hey Anuj,

If your rank is less than the cutoff opening rank of a NIT then you will surely be eligible for that NIT. If you want that NIT just fill it in your counselling process and you will surely get it. I hope you have got the point.

Good luck for your career ahead !
