Hello Indusree
As being said in many reports and articles, candidates who have percentile below 85 have less chances of clearing the exam. This is a tentative statement. You'll have to wait for the final answer till April. However, for now you can start preparing more for the April exam.
The closing ranks generally vary every year depending on number of studenst appeared, difficulty level, previous year cutoff trends.
So difficult to gauge any minimum score, but as per trends the cutoff to get into newer NITs is under rank 40,000 under JEE mains as NITs accept only JEE Mains.hence, suggested score of more than 150+ is safe to be considered for getting newer NITs while for top NITs a minimum of 210+ is must.

Coming to top IITs, the cutoffsare under rank 2000 and with newer IITs the cutoff ranks under 9000, which results into cutoffof 310+ for top IITs and for newer IITs it should be around 185+.
