Hey aspirant!
As of now, it is difficult to predict the actual qualifying NTA score for JEE Advanced eligibility as the April JEE Session is yet to take place. However, if you have a percentile above 85-86 for any category student, then you have a decent chance to qualify. Also, you should refer to the previous year JEE Main qualifying cutoff scores by NTA as follows to understand your chances:-
Common Rank List (CRL)
89.7548849
GEN-EWS
78.2174869
Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL)
74.3166557
Scheduled Caste (SC)
54.0128155
Scheduled Tribe (ST)
44.3345172
PwD
0.11371730
Therefore, looking at previous year's trends, you have a good enough chance to qualify for JEE ADVANCED based on January JEE scores only but I would still advise you to not take any risks and appear for April Mains too as it would give you a chance to improve your scores and getting your desired colleges, so I would advise you to concentrated on that and give it your best shot.
