Hey,
The minimum eligibility criteria is that Candidates should have obtained a minimum of 75% marks in class 12 or equivalent exam or they must be in the top 20 percentile in their class 12 examination. For SC/ ST, the eligibility is to obtain a minimum of 65% marks in class 12 or equivalent.
So,one is not eligible with 50 percent in boards no matter,how well your JEE score is.

Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Hello Aspirant,

No, he/she will not get any seat as the eligibility criteria for JEE for the 12th marks is 75% so no matter how he/she scored in JEE exam if he/she don't have 75% result in 12th they they reject him/her.

Good Luck
