Hey,
Regarding your query I would like to inform you that inspite of being an aspirant of reserved quota, you don't have any kind of possibility to get admission in any topmost and esteemed IIITs in India through 15% AIQ with this performance in JEE MAIN 2020. Because according to the previous year's (2019) details being SC cateogory student you had to secure atleast 11-12k rank on the basis of General Merit rank to get chance in this kind of eminent institutions where your category rank is above 20k i.e. your GMR must be above 1.5 lakh. Yo u may go through the following article to gain a vivid perception in this regard:

Though previous year's cut-off change state to state on the basis of several determining factors, but it can be surely assumed that the cut-off ranks can't be too much increased to become 1.5 lakh this year.
Moreover You don't have mentioned your State, so I can't make any comment about your possibilities in State Counselling. However if you belong to Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Madhya Pradesh then there's a little hope to get admission in IIIT Kottayam, IIIT Kanchipuram and IIIT Gwalior through 85% Home State quota. Moreover since you're a SC canditate, your ranks are suitable for several renowned Engineering colleges in your state, so don't forget to apply for State Level Counselling procedure.
