Hello Aspirant,

Yes you heard it write, to qualify for JEE Mains, there is no minimum aggregate percentage criteria but yes if you want to take admission into NITs, IIITs or CFTIs or you want to appear for JEE-Advance then you should score a minimum aggregate of 75% in your class 12th if you belongs to General/Unreserved category and 65% if you belongs to any of the reserved category. So in the case if you have not scored the minimum 75% marks in class 12th in session 2019-20 then what you can do is, you can appear for improvement examination and you can clear that with 75% but note that your class 12th passing year will be considered as 2020, according to which you are allowed to appear in JEE-Main up to JEE-Main 2022 only. Or if you are under top 20 percentile of the result of your board for session 20219-20 then also you are eligible for JEE-Main 2021 and in this case it is not mandatory to have 75% in  class 12th.
