For SC candidates, the JEE Mains percentile required for admission to IIITs varies each year based on cutoffs, seat availability, and competition. Generally, a percentile of 70–75 or higher improves the chances of securing a seat in lower-tier IIITs, while top IIITs may require 80+ percentile. However, specific cutoffs depend on the IIIT, the chosen branch, and the number of applicants. It is best to check the latest JoSAA counseling cutoffs for accurate information regarding category-wise admission requirements.

Hello,


For SC candidates, admission to IIITs through JEE Mains generally requires a percentile of around 70–80 for newer or lower-ranked IIITs and 85–90+ for top IIITs like IIIT Hyderabad, IIIT Allahabad, and IIIT Bangalore. However, the exact cutoff varies each year based on factors like the number of applicants, seat availability, and difficulty level of the exam.

Hello aspirant,

General category cutoffs are anticipated to be 95+, OBC at 83+, EWS at 85+, SC at 65+, and ST at 50+. Candidates are advised that there will be differences between the JEE Main qualifying and admission cutoffs. Candidates would be eligible to take the JEE Main 2025 exam if their cutoff score is higher.
