Dear Aspirant,
To get into IITs you have to score approximately 30% of the marks of the total marks of the JEE Advanced that year in which you appear. Predicting the exact marks is impossible as the cutoffs varies every year and also the full marks varied every year or every second year too.
Last year, in 2019, the maximum marks for the JEE ADVANCED were 372. The cutoff for the 2019 was 31.5 marks out of 372, and 9 marks in each Physics Chemistry and Mathematics for the OBC-NCL. In that case the required marks will be approx 120 to get into at least one IIT in the top 10 IITs. There are approximately 11289 seats in IITs for JEE Advanced and approximately 3000 seats go to OBC.
Hope this helps. Thank you.
There is no specific indication of marks because the maximum marks changes in JEE Advanced so it is difficult to predict. Also the cut off depends on the branch, number of seats available in the branch, number of candidates applied etc. To be eligible to get admission in IITs you need to score the minimum cut off marks, in 2019 the cut off was 31.5% aggregate for OBC-NCL, this year it will change depending on number of candidates appeared, difficulty of exam etc. Scoring just the cut off marks may not give you a seat in top 10 IITs you need to score above that. Your category rank must be within 2000 so that you may have decent chances of getting seat in top IITs.
