Hi

Irrespective of your rank in jee main, you cannot get into IIT Delhi or any other IIT.

This is because,

Admission in IITs is solely on jee advanced rank.

With  99 percentile



It is quite difficult to make prediction but yes as per past year trend , you hold extremely low  chance to get a seat in nit Delhi for computer science

For example,

In 6th round of josaa counselling 2020,  6983 rank for general category for gender neutral  was closing rank to get a seat computer science in NIT Delhi under other state.

You can check the same at

https://josaa.nic.in/Result/Result/currentorcr.aspx

But yes,

You  have chances in following NITs for computer science which are listed below along with their closing rank in 6th round of josaa counselling 2020, for gender neutral for other other state :-

---------)National Institute of Technology Patna, Computer science:-14010

---------) National Institute of Technology Agartala, computer science:-18351

---------) Nit nagaland, computer science :- 28779

And a few more

This above prediction is on the past year data basis but  cut closing rank for colleges changes every year depending upon factors like number of candidates that write jee main examination, difficulty level of the question paper for different shifts of jee main etc so
