150 Marks in JEE Main 2026 – Percentile & Rank Analysis

150/300 marks ≈ 93–95 percentile, rank ~70,000–1,00,000 — NE NITs, GFTIs, and state counselling

150 Marks in JEE Main 2026 – What It Means

Scoring 150 marks out of 300 in JEE Main 2026 places you in approximately the 93rd–95th percentile — top 5–7% of ~14 lakh candidates — with a CRL rank of 70,000–1,00,000. This is a competitive score that opens genuine engineering pathways through JoSAA and state counsellings.

Through JoSAA, your primary targets should be: newer NITs in NE states (NIT Arunachal Pradesh, NIT Nagaland, NIT Mizoram — their non-CSE branches close around 80,000–1,10,000), and GFTIslike IIEST Shibpur (Civil/Architecture), SLIET Punjab, and Assam University.

Through state counsellings, 93–95 percentile is strong. Maharashtra state quota uses JEE Main directly; AKTU UP covers Harcourt Butler Technical University (HBTU) Kanpur, MMMUT Gorakhpur, and many government-aided private colleges. These are often underrated options with improving placement records.

Can I get into NIT with 150 marks in JEE Main 2026?
At rank 70,000–1,00,000, most regular NIT branches through JoSAA are out of reach.

Several GFTIs close in this rank range: IIEST Shibpur (ECE, Civil ~70,000–90,000), BIT Mesra Ranchi (Mech, Civil), SLIET Punjab (Engineering), Assam University Silchar, NIT Andhra Pradesh (newer, higher closing ranks), and various GFTI campuses in NE India. Check the complete JoSAA GFTI list for all options.
5
What state counselling options work best at 93–95 percentile?

Strongest options: Maharashtra (JEE Main score used directly for many state-quota seats at government colleges like VJTI, COEP); UP AKTU (can target HBTU Kanpur, MMMUT Gorakhpur); Rajasthan (MBM Jodhpur government engineering college); Karnataka KCET equivalent scores; and Telangana/AP EAMCET state-level admissions.
