Hello Candidate,
As per our expert 85 percentile is require by candidate to clear Jee main if candidate is from General category.
OBC candidate have around 5 percentile less can clear the Jee main Jan.
But clearing JEE main not provide you NITs, IIITs. For fetching seats in NIT, IIITs your percentile should be around 90 for OBC candidate.
You should go for April Jee main. To increase percentile in April Jee main you should do model question paper with revision of concepts, preparation. For IIT candidate should clear the Jee Advance with good rank.
Note: Careers360 is not responsible for any varies in prediction . Prediction is based on the previous year cutoffs.
NTA results is final.
If you have any questions remain than comment below.
Good luck...

Hello aspirant,
You can't get an IIT college through JEE Mains. You need to qualify JEE Mains and have to appear in JEE Advance to get IIT Colleges. Your percentile is not enough for you to qualify JEE Mains but don't worry you have one more chance to give JEE Mains in April so try to to give your best.
thankyou for connecting with Careers360..
