Hey,

Yes, your friend can definitely get admission in 2nd year of BTech. Colleges offer lateral entry to Diploma students. Also, it won't matter if marks are in CGPA. In lateral entry application, they ask you for percentage OR CGPA. So, you don't have to worry about that.
Also, your friend won't be able to get admission in NITs since they don't have lateral entry. IITs give admission to Diploma students, but from 1st year, not from 2nd year. So, to get admission in IIT, your friend will have to give JEE examination.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

The admission for diploma students in engineering colleges is done through lateral entry. Students who are interested in pursuing a B. Tech degree after their diploma can opt for it. The college council provides counseling for those students as well.
