Hi
Don’t worry in case you couldn’t qualify in JEE Advanced, you will still have chances to get admission in NITs on the basis of your JEE Main scores.
Please note that even if you qualify in JEE Main exam, you will have to meet the cutoff prescribed by NITs. The cutoff is the minimum marks required to get admission in the institute and the course.
Along with the cutoff, you will have to score minimum 75% marks in your class XII boards or you have to be in top 20 percentile of your respective board for admission purpose.
You can check the JEE Main cutoff from the link given below:

Do write back to me in case you need more information.
All the best!
Hello Mallikarjun,
Admission to NITs, IIITs, and CFTIs are on the basis of JEE Main scores. Consequently, it doesn;t matter whether you fared poorly in JEE Advanced or not. If you have a good enough score in JEE Main, you will be in contention for admission to B.Tech courses at these institutes.
On the other hand, if you don't meet the cutoff of JEE Advanced, you will not in contention for admission at the IITs. Also, please note that your JEE Main scores will not be considered for admission at the IITs. In fact, JEE Main scores are only used to screen candidates who can appear in JEE Advanced. In JEE Advanved, the exam conducting authority has delcared that around 2, 24,000 candidates will qualify for JEE Advanced.
Regards.
