Hello Suman,
Below are thecriteria for 12th std:
- You need to have secured a minimum 75% marks in class XII or equivalent exam or be in the top 20 percentile in their class XII exam conducted by the respective board.
- If you belong to SC/ ST candidates, the eligibility criteria is to secure 65% marks in class XII or equivalent exam.
So that means you will have to bring above 75% in 12th Std so with 70% you aren't eligible.
Hope that helps and all the best!

Hey ,
They only see 12th Marks on the basis of the eligibility. JEE is the main cutoff for most NITS. ALL THE BEST
