hello aspirant,

97 percentile would fetch you a rank around 30690-34500.now these are based on previous year analysis .As of now its tough to say because the analysis and also cutoffs change every year due to many factors like total students appearing for exam,difficulty level of paper etc.as you did not mention your category considering you from general category ,you need a percentile of 96-98+ to fetch seat in nits or iiits.97 percentile would fetch you nits,but may not be top branches like cse.cse needs a rank below 10k. work hard and improve your score in the upcoming jee main sessions.for more information refer to: https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-college-predictor?icn=QnA&ici=qna_answer

to know about the cutoffs of top branches refer to: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/nits-cutoff-for-top-btech-branches

hope this helps,

thankyou.
