hello aspirant,

I guess you are asking whether you cleared the jeemain cutoff i.e if you qualified.The cutoff for jeemain will be released after the may session.so 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.  but based on previous year analysis there are some expected cutoffs and are as follows:

GEN-90-95

GEN EWS-70-75

OBC-NCL-70-75

SC-50-55

ST-40-45

PWD-1-2.

but the cutoffs will be somewhere close to the above mentioned cutoffs.so based on previous trends yes you have high chances that you cleared jeemain i.e you qualified to write jee advanced.now 87 percentile would fetch you a rank around  132990-149500.with your rank you will have nearly  tough to no chances to fetch in nits and iiits.nevertheless you have work hard and improve your score in the upcoming jee mains and score better  to 96-98+ perentile for your category to fetch seat in good branches and good nits.for more information refer to: https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-college-predictor?icn=QnA&ici=qna_answer

Dear student,

For your JEE Mains Paper-1 percentile you have chances of getting Overall Rank as 132990 - 149500 based on previous years data. To say whether you cleared JEE Mains or not it requires your category details. Because cutoff is different for different categories and changes from year to year. It is also based on difficulty level of exam, number of candidates appearing in the exam,average marks scored by the candidates etc.
Below is the expected JEE Mains cut-off for this year. As you have not mentioned your category, assuming that you belong to General Category, you can clear the exam and have good chances too.
JEE Mains 2021 expected Cutoff is

Common Rank List (CRL) 90- 95
GEN-EWS 70- 75
Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) 70- 75
Scheduled Caste (SC) 50- 55
Scheduled Tribe (ST) 40- 45
PwD 1-2
