sir if am from general categary and i got 68 % in 12th but i have EWS certificate can i get admission in IITS.
I am here for helping ....
As you have EWS category certificate but in real your category is general so, your doubt is that can you take admission in IIT's with your 12 th percentage 68.
Ok, so firstly you should know that if you are going to take admission IIT's then your category is basically verified through category certificate ( if you belong to any category other than general)
Because you are going to have benifit of reservation.
And if you are from general category then there is no need to apply any category certificate because no one will be there who will write his/ her category general while belonging from other category , who will kick out the benifits.
So , if you have EWS category certificate then you can take admission through it only if EWS category is written on your 12 th marksheet . But you should full fill minimum eligibility criteria ( dicided minimum aggregate marks) but remember that after that your category will be EWS on each documents permanently . And if you will write your category general in future then it may create lots of problems.
I hope it will be beneficial for you......

Percentage relaxation is only for SC/ST and PwD categories. As EWS category is under General Category, therefore there is no relaxation for it. Your board percentage should be more than 75% for the admissions in IITs or NITs. For SC/ST and PwD candidates, the percentage should be atleast 65%.
Well, brother with 68% you are not allowed to take part admission not only in IIT but in all the JoSAA affiliated colleges which includes NIT/IIIT/GFTI.
Yes, as JoSAA mandates, student to have minimum 75% in CBSE/ICSE board to qualify for the JoSAA counseling
I would recommend you to give JAC counseling, as qualifying perentage in this is 65%. By this counseling, you hold a chance of getting into the prestigious NSIT,DTU,IIITD
Thank You
