Dear student,

No, now it is not mandatory to have 75% or above to get An IIT and NIT.

An for that earlier before 2020, a student needed to score minimum 75% in 12th board or had to be in top 20% of the students in any equivalent board of class 12th but now you just need minimum qualifying marks in 12th board exam.

This rule is applicable for all students who are willing to take admission in NITs, IIITs and CFTIs.

So in JEE Main 2022 too, you will have no requirement to score 75% in board to get admission in IIT, NIT and CFTIs.

To know more about the eligibility criteria for JEE Main, you can go through the link through the link below.

All the very best!!
