Hello Aspirant,

See there is no any fixed minimum percentile required to be eligible for admission in NITs for any category because the seat allotment process is based on the rank of candidate but if you are an EWS candidate and wants to get into any NIT with CSE branch then your EWS rank should be between 2500-3200 and you should at least try for 98.5+ percentile in JEE-Main 2022 .

See the qualifying cut-off percentiles which needs to be cleared by any candidate to sit in JEE-Advance is released along with the final result of JEE-Main and for JEE-Main 2022 the final result will be released after all four attempts will be completed and the final result will be on the basis of your best score amongst different attempts.

As the cut-offs are released along with the JEE-Main 2022 result so for now you can get an idea from JEE-Main 2021 qualifying cut-offs that are enlisted below :-

==>> Common Rank List (CRL) - 87.8992241-100.0000000 Percentile

==>> GEN-EWS - 66.2214845-87.8950071 Percentile

==>> Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) - 68.0234447-87.8950071 Percentile

==>> Scheduled Caste (SC) - 46.8825338-87.8950071 Percentile

==>> Scheduled Tribe (ST) - 34.6728999 87.8474721 Percentile

==>> PwD - 0.0096375-87.8273359 Percentile

Note that in above table it is not the actual cut-off for JEE-Main 2022 but previous year's cut-off.
