Hello Aspirant,

See if you want to get admission in any of the NITs for B.Tech course then JEE-Main is mandatory and to qualify for JEE Mains, there is no minimum aggregate percentage criteria but yes if you want to take admission into NITs, IIITs or CFTIs then you should score a minimum aggregate of 75% in your class 12th if you belongs to General/Unreserved category and 65% if you belongs to any of the reserved category. Now if you want to get best NITs like NIT Trichy, NIT Allahabad, NIT Delhi and so on then you should try to score at least 99+ percentile in JEE-Main 2021 if you belongs to General category and if you belongs to some other reserved categories then 97 percentile or more can also take you there.
