Hi Asma,
For percentile 86.33 your general rank should be around in the range 1.25 lakh - 1.50 lakh and your obc rank should be 40k which is not good enough to get a seat in NIT. There is a very slim chances of getting lower NITs(lower branch) only if you have state quota for that NIT. That means the NIT which lies in your state should not be top - notch. You can get lower branches at lower NITs like NIT Agartala, NIT Manipur, NIT Mizoram etc only if you have homes tate quota for these NITs.
I hope this answer will help!!
All the best for the future!!
