Hi

Yes, with 80% marks in your class twelfth board examination you are definitely eligible for NITs and IITs  and it is it doesn't matter even if you  have only 60 marks i. e 60% in maths

This is because,

To be eligible for NITs, IITs, a general category student requires at least 75% in aggregate in 12th.There's no seperate minimum%  requirement in MATHS..

Moreover,

This year i. e 2022, minimum percentage barrier of 75% to be eligible for NITs  etc and IITs is not there

Admission in NITs, IIITs, CFTIs is through jee main & in  IITs through jee advanced

For your reference,
