To NIT Puducherry CSE, since your percentile in JEE Main is 90, and since, moreover, you belong to the SC category, female, and home state candidate, you stand a good chance. The closing ranks have ranged between 19,562 (2022) and 29,725 (2024) based on the past years cutoffs of the SC Home State Female candidates of NIT Puducherry cutoffs at CSE. A 90 percentile ordinarily will represent a position between 101,352-112,695 (via 2024 data). Although your percentile is okay, change it into exact rank so that you have a better perspective. The most important thing is your rank in a specific category SC Home State Female, and, judging by the previous years, a rank in this category in the 90 percentile (with this percentile corresponding to the rank that is significantly higher than the SC category cutoffs on CSE at NITPY) would most likely give you a good chance.
