Hello

Yes, you are eligible for jee advanced if you meet qualifying cut off percentile. It doesn't matter even if your crl is above 2.5 lakh.

This is because,

It's 2.5 lakh students and not rank

It's a misconception that you need to be in top 2.5 lakh rank to be eligible for jee advanced   rather JEE main qualifying cut off for different categories   is such that only a total of around  2,50,000  students become eligible to appear for JEE Advanced  examination.

So, to be eligible for jee advanced  you need to meet jee main qualifying cut off percentile for your category.

Now,

Minimum percentile in jee main 2021 to qualify it to  be eligible for jee advanced 2021 is given below :-

--------) general :-87.8992241 percentile

--------) EWS:- 66.2214845 percentile

--   ------) OBC-NCL :- 68.0234447 percentile

†*** so if you meet it then  you are definitely eligible for jee advanced .


--------) SC :- 46.8825338 percentile

--------) ST:- 34.6728999 percentile

--------) PH :- 0.0096375 percentile
