As per the past year trends you need to get over 140 marks to be able to get a percentile above 97. Also you need to atleast get over 10 percent in every subject to pass the exam for general category.
I would recommend you to get over 180 to be able to have a better chance at getting seats in nits,iiits and gfits.
These trends change every year and depends on the complexity of the exam and no. Of aspirants etc.
Hope this helps

Hi Aspirant,
It would be a little unfair to predict percentile, based on marks in 2021 JEE Mains. Based on previous years' trend, for 97 percentile, your score should be in the range 110-130.
The percentile depends upon the paper's difficulty level, and the number of candidates appears for the exam.
Prepare well for the exam, and All the best.
