Rank in JEE Main Paper 2 can be calculated by the formula:

Rank = (100-percentile)*(No. of students appeared for the examination)/100

As the no. of students appeared for Paper 2 are 112679, your rank will be around 13000. However as the no. of students in April changes, your rank will change according to that.

With this rank there are less chances of getting a NIT through open category but since you are from SC category, you have sufficient chances of getting into one of the Top NITs with Architecture branch.
