Hello aspirant,
The total marks in jee mains is 300 for paper 1 ( b.tech) for paper 2 it is 400 ( for b.arch ) . Out of 300 their are different cutoff for different categories .
You have to score good Marks according to your category to qualify jee mains .

And yes their will be negative marking in jee mains in 2021 also.

And there are two exams in jee mains from which first will be held on Jan and second will be in the second week of April.

Best of luck.
Hope it's helpful thankyou.
