is jee main exam compulsory for entrance

If you want to pursue Engineering or Science and Technology courses from NIT's/IIT's then JEE MAINS is must for you.  By having a good rank in JEE MAINS you can take admission in NIT and on qualifying the cutoff of JEE MAINS you can appear for JEE ADVANCED. So if you score well and get a good enough rank then you can take admission in IIT.

Apart from this very few colleges also accept the JEE MAINS score and other exam scores. So JEE MAINS is one of the entrance which will satisfy your purpose for the above mentioned specifics. But if you don't want to go for it then you have many other entrances like the State Engineering Entrance (WBJEE.OJEE.MHTCET etc), private Engineering college entrances like BITSAT, VITEEE,SRMJEE etc.

So JEE MAINS isn't a compulsory entrance.
