Dear aspirant
For admission to NITs, IIITs and CFTIs, candidates need to secure a minimum score in 12th exams. Usually, JEE Main exam requires a minimum of 75% for general category and 65% for reserved category (SC/ ST/ PWD) in 12th class examination.
This is only for checking eligibility of a candidate. This percentage is not considered for allotting any seat in the NITs and IIITs.
However, this year NTA has discarded the percentage criteria and only the 12th pass certificate is required for registration.
Do not worry, there would not be any problem for you if you wish to take admission in any of the NITs.
Good luck!
