Hello


No, you are not eligible for jee main.

This is because,

You have already passed 12th in 2021 with pcb and now going to appear for only maths as a  additional subject but to be eligible you should have passed it as a mandatory subject in your 12th board examination itself.

For your reference,

Jee main eligibility criteria is given below-

--------) Qualification required :- to be eligible  for JEE mains you need 10+2/equivalent qualification.

Course

Required Criteria based on Class 12th  or equivalent

-----) Mathematics ,
