With an NTA percentile of 71.55, it is not possible to get admission in NIT Trichy, even if you belong to a reserved category.

Here's why :

NIT Trichy is one of the top NITs in India.

The cut-off percentile for even the SC/ST category is generally above 85, and for General/OBC, it goes well above 90-95.

Your estimated rank would be around 3 lakh or more, which is far beyond the closing rank for any branch in NIT Trichy.

What you can do next :

Apply for state government colleges that accept JEE Main scores.

Look into private engineering colleges with good faculty and placements.

Or explore other career options based on your interest.

With an OBC-NCL percentile of 86.0032 in JEE Main 2025, your expected category rank is around 45,000–55,000. It is very unlikely that you'll get a seat at NIT Trichy, as its OBC-NCL cutoffs for most branches usually close within the top 5,000–8,000 ranks.

NIT Trichy cutoff trends:

- CSE: Below 1,500

- ECE: Below 3,500

- Mechanical/Civil: Around 5,000–6,500

- Least competitive branches: Still under 10,000 in most cases

What you can do:

- Explore other NITs with higher cutoffs like NIT Nagaland, NIT Mizoram, or NIT Agartala

- Consider GFTIs or state-level colleges

- Participate in JoSAA counseling—you may get a seat in a lower-demand branch at a newer institute

Based on your CRL rank of 43372, OBC-NCL rank of 12480, and 97.16 percentile, and considering the home state and girls quota at NIT Trichy, you have a reasonable chance of securing admission to a less competitive B.Tech program like Civil or Chemical Engineering. Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) might be difficult to obtain with these metrics, as the demand for CSE is high, and you would need a significantly higher rank.
