Hello

No, as of now commerce students are not eligible for B tech courses irrespective of their percentage in 12th.

Recently, AICTE had made physics chemistry and mathematics not compulsory in order to be eligible for  your BTech. And as per new rule to be eligible for BE/BTech, one needs to pass 12th with at least 45 % in aggregate of any of 3 subjects listed below  :-

*Physics,

*Mathematics,

* Chemistry,

* Computer Science,

* Electronics,

*Information Technology,

*Biology,

* Informatics Practices,

* Biotechnology,

*Technical Vocational subject,

* Engineering Graphics,

* Business Studies,

* Entrepreneurship.

But AICTE has not made it compulsory for engineering colleges to offer admission in BE/Btech as per above rule. It has just just opened doors for engineering institutions  to offer btech courses to student not having physics chemistry and Maths by offering a bridge course to them. But as of now no institution has started to provide btech following new rule .

So, as of now there's no engineering college , to provide admission in be/btech to Arts student.
