Hello Kuldeep
Since if you have attempted 60 correct questions among 90 questions and among those 60 questions only 55 are correct then your marks will be 220 and since you have unanswered 5 questions . For getting one wrong question 1/3 marks will be deducted as you said. So here you have attempted 5 wrong questions then your total negative marks will be 5/3 which means 1.66 marks will be deducted from all you gain 220 marks . So overall your marks will be approx to 217 marks in JEE mains.
All the best
