Hello aspirant,

With a JEE Main percentile of 83.89% , your CRL (Common Rank List) is likely to be around 1,45,000 to 1,60,000 . Admission to NITs depends on several factors, including:

Key Considerations:

1. Category : If you belong to SC/ST/OBC/EWS , your chances are better compared to the general category.
   
   

2. Home State Quota : Some NITs have lower cutoffs for home state candidates .
   
   

3. Branch Preference : Less competitive branches (like Civil , Metallurgy , Production , etc.) have higher cutoff ranks compared to CSE or ECE .
   
   

   Recommended

4. Special/CSAB Rounds : You might have a chance during the CSAB special rounds , where closing ranks are more relaxed.
   
   Chances of Getting into an NIT:

• General Category : Tough for popular branches; very slim for CSE, ECE, or IT.
  
  

• OBC/EWS Category : May get a seat in lower-ranked NITs or less in-demand branches.
  
  

• SC/ST Category : Better chances in several NITs, even in good branches.
  
  Recommendation:

• Apply through JoSAA and CSAB rounds .

• Keep your branch and location preferences flexible .

• Consider backup options like IIITs , GFTIs , or good state engineering colleges .

I would recommend you to use JEE Mains College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank or percentile.
