Closing rank: JEE Main 2026, JoSAA round 5 (the last round), OPEN seats, gender-neutral pool, for the programme named under it (OS = Other State quota, HS = Home State quota). Seats are the JoSAA seat matrix total for all programmes. Fees are one year of B.Tech tuition and compulsory institute fees, without hostel and mess.

A counsellor can tell you which NITs and branches are realistic for your rank and category, and help you order your JoSAA choices.

How admission to a NIT works

Admission is on the JEE Main (Paper 1) All India Rank. JoSAA allots the seats in several rounds; seats still vacant after that are filled in the CSAB special rounds. You also need 75% in Class 12 (65% for SC, ST and PwD candidates) or a place in the top 20 percentile of your board.

As a rule, half the seats in an NIT programme are Home State (HS) seats, for candidates who passed Class 12 in the state where the NIT is. The other half are Other State (OS) seats, for everyone else. The two pools have their own closing ranks, so check the one that applies to you.

Inside each pool there are seats for OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS and PwD candidates and a separate female-only pool.

Official sites: JoSAA and CSAB. Rules can change each year, so read the current business rules before you fill your choices.
