JEE Mains College Predictor by Category

JoSAA uses your CRL (Common Rank List) rank for General/EWS seats and your category rank (OBC-NCL rank, SC rank, ST rank) for reserved seats. For example, if you are OBC-NCL with CRL rank 25,000 and OBC-NCL rank 8,000, JoSAA will try to allot you a seat via OBC-NCL reserved quota using rank 8,000. The NTA rank card shows all applicable ranks — use the category rank specific to your certificate.

Based on JoSAA 2025 Round 6, NIT Trichy CSE OBC-NCL (Other State) closing rank was approximately 700. Home State OBC-NCL closed around 2,500. OBC-NCL candidates with category rank under 800 (OS) have a strong chance at NIT Trichy CSE. NIT Warangal OBC-NCL CSE (OS) was ~950; NIT Surathkal OBC-NCL CSE (OS) was ~1,100.

SC candidates with category rank under 800 (OS) can target top-5 NIT CSE branches. Based on JoSAA 2025 R6: NIT Trichy CSE SC-OS ~400; NIT Warangal CSE SC-OS ~600; NIT Calicut CSE SC-OS ~1,200; NIT Rourkela CSE SC-OS ~1,800; NIT Silchar CSE SC-OS ~6,000. SC candidates have a significant advantage in reserved seat quotas.

EWS (Economically Weaker Section) is a 10% reservation for candidates from the General category with annual family income below ₹8 lakh and without ownership of 5 acres+ agricultural land or large residential property. EWS seats are separate from General seats. EWS closing ranks at NITs are typically 2–3x higher (more relaxed) than General closing ranks, making it easier for EWS candidates to secure seats.

Yes. PwD (Persons with Disability) candidates with at least 40% disability get a separate PwD quota within each category (General-PwD, OBC-NCL-PwD, SC-PwD, ST-PwD). PwD closing ranks are typically very relaxed, often 5–10x the general category closing rank for the same programme. Candidates must submit a valid disability certificate from a government medical board.
