Hello,
If you are from general category, then you must have secured minimum 75% in your class 12 boards (65% for ST/SC/OBC). Apart from that if you are in the top 20 percentile of your respective boards then also you are eligible for admission into NITs IIITs and GFTIs and also eligible for JEE Advanced if you qualify in JEE mains.
As you appeared for your class 12 boards in the last year, you could have appeared for your improvement exam in the year 2020. But if you have not registered for the improvement exam, then you have no other ways to increase your score. So as you have secured only 73% in boards which is less than 75% minimum, so you won't be eligible for admission into NITs IIITs and GFTIs. Also you won't be eligible for JEE Advanced even if you qualify for JEE mains.
You can only go for private engineering colleges in India. You can work hard from there and learn new skills. After all, it depends on how hard you can work. All the best.
Here's a list of top private engineering colleges in India https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://engineering.careers360.com/colleges/ranking/top-private-engineering-colleges-in-India&ved=2ahUKEwjAlZHOktbqAhUTIbcAHUR4AmwQFjAPegQIBxAB&usg=AOvVaw3ZtyjIynwh5jLDs3nOHHoU
