Hi Abhishek,

In order to get ece branch in NIT TRICHY, a student must have a minimum of 170+ Mark's for ECE branch.

For EWS category candidates, approx 98%ile must be scored for safer side because nobody knows when the cutoff pattern changes and the level of the question paper.  So better to grab more marks.

Check this link for cutoffs for different categories: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff-for-nit-trichy

I hope you will get your answer. Revert back in case of any issue.

Thank you!!!
