IISER have three admission channels: JEE Advanced, KVPY and SCB (State and Central Board) channel.

For the first two you have to appear in respective exams and clear them.

If you are refering to SCB channel which is based on 12th marks then you have to specify your board as they have different cutoffs for different boards. If you are from CBSE board then you are eligible and can apply in via SCB channel. As per the cutoff it will be decided whether you are eligible or not and you will have to write the entrance exam. If you qualify the entrance then further procedures are followed. Here is the link for the different board cutoffs.
