Hi
Your profile suggest that you are an Engineering aspirant
Top 20 percentile is issued by josaa each year for each board.
Minimum percentage requirement / top 20 percentile criteria was not there in 2020 and 2021 for NITS, IIITS, IITS, GFTIS in order to give relaxation to students due to covid so josaa had not released top 20 percentile for the year 2020 and 2021 dear so I can't help you with the same dear.
Anyway,
For UP board, in general top 20 percentile is roughly is around 65 to 70 percent in 12th for general category.
For example,
In 2018, for general category, 338 out of 500 marks i. e 67.6 % marks was top 20 percentile for UP board.

Am assuming you are asking abou this to be eligible for NITS etc.
You need to have 75 % in 12th if belongs to general category or needs to be in top 20 percentile. To so to be on the safe decide if your percentage in class 12th is low then I would suggest you to appear for improvement examination
