Hi! Yes, you are indeed eligible for JEE Mains and Advanced in 2021. For JEE Mains,

1. You should have passed their class 12 examination in 2019 or 2020, which you have! Remember one thing though- only three consecutive attempts are allowed for JEE Mains, so be careful. There is no age limit, so that shouldn't be a problem as well. A gap of one year after 10th won't have any effect here. So you need not worry about that.

2. You should obtain a minimum qualifying score in the paper. For different categories, the qualifying score is different.

3 You should have taken at least five subjects for the 12th class or qualifying exam (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics compulsory). So if you took these subjects, you are eligible for JEE Mains. In order to apply for Advance, you need to qualify in JEE Mains first. Remember, you can only give Advanced twice, so prepare wisely.
