Hi Nityam!!
It is basically level by level procedure. You have to qualify a couple of exams like Jee Main and Jee Advance with good rank for having admission in an IIT and then you get a seat through counselling.
You just have to qualify Jee Main for having admission in NIT and IIIT. Candidates are selected on the basis of merit and then a counselling session happen for distribution of branches and colleges.
