Hi 

Good morning

This is Ritika

First of all congratulations you have got very good marks and now coming to your question it is just a prediction that your percentile will be around 99.8 or 99.9.As the percentile depends not on your marks it depends on how much student got more marks then you and less marks then you

Formula to calculate jee main percentile 

(100-percentage of student got less marks then you)/100)*no of student appeared in the exam

Hope this answer will help you

All the best

Thank you

Hello Chaitanya,

You have a very good score, congratulations. Since you have not told about your reservation category and your 12th passing here I am using the basic assumption that you are a General candidate with passing year 2019. In case of any difference please comment below.

Your probable rank will be 2,514 - 2,814. Your probable percentile will be 98.8 - 100. 

All the best. Have a bright future.

Hello

JEE Main exam is being conducted twice a year for the first time by NTA and it would be difficult to calculate the percentile.

Percentile is calculated using the below formula-

Total Percentile (T1P): 100 X No. of candidates appeared from the session with raw score EQUAL TO OR LESS than the total raw score/ Total No. of candidates appeared in the session

As the exact number of candidates that appeared for exam in your session has not been declared. It is difficult to predict the percentile.
However, you can calculate your probable rank using the rank predictor tool-
