Hi,


In NITs only 5% of seats are reserved for PWD candidates in each category, i.e., General, GEN EWS, OBC NCL, SC, and ST.

And for qualifying JEE Mains, if you are a ST PWD candidate you need to score a minimum of 12 - 17 marks (i.e. answer 4-5 questions correctly). If your score is in this range and likewise your rank then you have a good chance of getting into any of the NITs.


And as for IITs, 58 seats are reserved for ST-PWD candidates. Going by previous years data, a candidate belonging to this category has to score an average marks of 17.5, which means minimum marks required in each subject is 5.


Hope that was helpful.
