Hello Ayush,


Hope you are doing well.


According to your rank there seems very less chances of yours to get a seat in top NIT's. The rank you obtained does not come under the closing rank required to get a seat in top NIT's  when compared with previous years closing rank. But in lower NIT's  there seems chances you may get a seat. You can also visit the link below to see previous year closing rank of different NIT's:

Hi Ayush,

So, as per the information PROVIDED by you shows that you have got the OBC rank of 49126 . Since,the cutoff counselling of JoSAA has not yet been started therefore it may not be accurately possible to predict your colleges.

But,seeing the previous trends in Cutoffs for various NITs it may be very tough for you to get into any of them, since they offer a very high cutoff in OBC Category List.(usually around 19,000-23,000) .

  • It is advised to you to also apply for other state level counselling process and of other colleges like SRM,MANIPAL,RAMAIYAH, TIET, LPU etc. Which accept JEE scores for admission

  • However you can use the rank predictor tool using the link given below to know what colleges you may get as per previous trends.

  • Also,you can check the NITs cutoff here at the link

  • However,you can also wait till the Special Rounds which takes place if vacancy is there after JoSAA in NITs in the N-E like Manipur,Mizoram or NIT Meghalaya which offers cutofd ranks around 45,000-50,000 ( changes every year ,depends om vacancies left over)


Good Luck !
