Hello aspirant

Since your percentile is 81 , therefore your crl rank would be somewhere between 194370-218500 and your category rank will be around 72000-75000. And with this percentile getting admission in NIT or IIIT is not possible , but yes you can definitely go for other government colleges of your state since you get a home state quota also their.

Here are some colleges you can try for:-

UIET Chandigarh

UIET Kurukshetra

YMCA university of science and technology , Faridabad

Institute of Chemical Technology , Mumbai

I wish you All the very best!
