Hi Aspirant!
As you have not mentioned 31k rank is your general rank or SC category rank I am considering it as SC rank. And sorry to say but with this rank you are not able to get into any NIT.
The closing rank of last round for SC category are as follows:
NIT: 6,500-8,000
IIIT:7,000-9,000
GFTIs: 10,000 -12,000
After considering it you can ownself understand that you can not get into any of the Colleges under Jossa Counseling till the last round.
But still you cna try your luck in CSAB special counseling for better chances.

Hi,
I would like to tell you that 31k rank is well good if you are talking about your AIR rank. With AIR rank of 31k, you can get any of the top NITs such as NIT Calicut (lower branches), NIT Warangal, NIT Surathkal etc. However, if your rank is 31k in ST category, then there are very low chances that you can get a good NIT. Still you can go for GFTIs as well as government colleges in your state as there are good chances for getting these college.
