IMPORTANT NOTE :- This minimum percentage barrier of 75 % - 65% for NITs, IIITs, CFTIs has been lifted off for jee main 2022 . It means to be eligible all you need to be eligible is to have at least passed 12th .
To be eligible for NITs etc in 2023 what you can do is give 12th improvement examination in order to get 75 % or more so that even if 75 % criteria returns in 2023 you will be eligible for NITs etc .
