Hello Divyanshu
You have not mentioned your exact % you got in PCM.
As per eligibility criteria , ( for Engineering ) the minimum % required for the candidate in xii board PCM is 50 % required for general category and 45% SC category.
If you have exact 45% in PCM , then also it works .
But below this % you won't be able to get admission to any institute whatever your marks be in JEE main .
Eligibility for NIT and IIT
• aggregate percentage , for general category aggregate percentage of 75% are required.
• for SC,/ St 65% aggregate are required for counselling and admission.
• 60% in PCM are required.
For CBSE candidate you must be in top 20 % percentile
It is Mandatory.
