Hello aspirant,

From the 75% criteria to get eligible for IIT or NIT in JEE mains or JEE advance, they mean that you must score a minimum percentage which is the aggregate marks of all the 3 subjects only, namely Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics (PCM).

Furthermore, The Eligibility criteria for JEE mains states that : He/She should have passed the qualifying exam with Physics, Mathematics, and any one of (Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, Technical Vocational Subject).
