IIT (Indian Institute of Technology) and NIT (National Institute of Technology) are both top engineering colleges in India, but IITs are considered more prestigious than NITs.
To get into an IIT, you have to first clear JEE Mains, and then qualify for JEE Advanced. Admission is based on your JEE Advanced rank.
To get into an NIT, you only need to clear JEE Mains. Your admission will be based on your JEE Mains rank.
In short:
IIT = JEE Mains + JEE Advanced
NIT = Only JEE Mains
IITs usually have higher competition, tougher exams, and slightly better placements, but NITs are also very good and respected.
