Hello Aspirant,

See if the rank mentioned by you is your OBC NCL rank then you have no chance in any of the NITs/IIITs because for any of the NITs/IIITs you should have your JEE-Main OBC rank at least 15k-16k, but if it is your CRL rank then your OBC rank would be somewhere around 18k-20k, so on such rank you can go for some of the GFTIs.

If we go through previous year's data of seat allotment On the basis of data mentioned in the question by you, you can go for the enlisted colleges :-

National Institute of Foundry & Forge Technology, Hatia, Ranchi - Mechanical Engineering (18802)

Indian Institute of Carpet Technology, Bhadohi - Carpet and Textile Technology (21301)

Gurukula Kangri Vishwavidyalaya, Haridwar - Electronics and Communication Engineering (20389)

And some more. You can check out previous year's cut-offs from the official website of JOSAA as given below :-
