Hello,

The overall expected rank with 48 percentile will be anywhere between 531960 - 598000. The overall expected rank can be checked using our JEE Main rank predictor tool

Considering the given overall rank and the previous year cut off you may not get seat in NITs, IIITs or GFTIs. You need to score minimum 92-94 percentile to secure decent rank which will enable you to get seat in NITs , IIITs or GFTIs. But you may qualify in JEE Main as the previous year cut off percentile for ST category was 39.0696101. In 2021 it is expected to be in between 40-45 percentile. So you can prepare for JEE Advanced if you want to get admission in an IIT else you may have to appear for JEE Main remaining sessions to get seat in NITs, IIIT, or GFTIs. The cut off depends on number of candidates appeared, difficulty level of exam, total number of seats available etc. So the cut off is going to change every year.
