Hello student,
With 85 percentile in St category, you have chances of procuring a seat in the NIT's when comparing the results of previous years. But, branches like CSE is not possible. You may get Mechanical engineering , but it depends on your rank and home state quotas. However you can predict the colleges which you are likely to get using the given link
