Hello,

Your son has secured a decent percentile and belonging to the OBC category he might have a chance in lower NITs like NIT Durgapur etc in branches such as Mechanical or civil engineering based on the cut-off of the previous years.

Below you can check the cutoff for various NITs

I'll also suggest you to try for state level counselings like MP, Haryana, Odisha etc.
To know about your son's admission chances in JOSSA & State counseling you can use JEE Main college Predictor tool.
