I'm not sure if I'll be eligible in them. I have never attempted jee before. Also, is this a wise decision? I really want to get into an iit.

Hello,
Yes, you will be eligible for JEE Main and Advanced 2026 as an appearing candidate through NIOS with PCM, since it's a recognized board.
You've not attempted JEE before, so 2026 can be your first attempt. If you're serious about IIT and ready to study well, it's a good decision. Just stay focused, choose PCM in NIOS, and prepare well for both NIOS and JEE together.
Hope it helps !
