Your obc rank will be around 60,000.

With this rank, your chances of getting a seat in NIT, IIITs is extremely low. Even to get a seat in lower NITs in lower branches your obc rank should have been at least around 15,000 obc rank

But yes,

You  have chances in lower government engineering college, some of which are listed below along with the link for their previous year cutoff :-

*Indira Gandhi Engineering College, Sagar :- https://dqxeclau.top/colleges/indira-gandhi-engineering-college-sagar/cut-off

*Institute of People's Science and Technology, Chitrakoot :- https://dqxeclau.top/colleges/institute-of-peoples-science-and-technology-chitrakoot/cut-off
