Hello souparnika,
If talk about rank list,
10,000 rank is pretty good to get you top branches in top NITs for which you have to score 99.2 percentile.
15,000 to 20,000 rank is decent enough to get you good NITs,you might have to compromise your branch.For this you have to score 98,5 percentile.
25,000 to 30,000 rank it would be difficult to get in the goog old NIT.though you can get decent bgranches in lower NITs with approx 97 percentile.
A minimum of 96 percentile should fetch you NITs(with lower branches and new NITs).
Hi dear,
If you want to go any top NITs your percentile should be above 99.for moderate NITs your percentile should be around 97 or for lower NITs 95 percentile may be enough.The cutoff may differ after NTA release the rank.all the cutoff mentioned above is for general category students.
Hope it helps.
