JoSAA Opening and Closing Rank 2025: The Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) manages the opening and closing ranks for admissions to various institutes like IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other GFTIs. The JoSAA opening rank refers to the highest rank at which a seat is allotted, while the JoSAA closing rank is the lowest rank at which a seat is allotted for a particular course and category. The JoSAA opening and closing ranks differ for all categories and are also based on gender, seats available and many other factors.

On the other hand, the JoSAA cutoff signifies the closing rank - the lowest rank at which a seat is allotted for a particular course and category. Usually, the JoSAA cutoff is highest for the computer science branch across the IITs and the NITs. Historical data shows that IIT Bombay’s CSE branch witnesses the highest cutoff yearly.

Commonly asked questions
Q:   Can I get NIT with 95 percentile in JEE Main?
A: 

With 95 percentile in JEE Mains, your chances of getting into a NIT are high, but high-demand courses may not be available.

Q:   Is a domicile Certificate required for admission to NITs?
A: 

Candidates do not need to present a domicile certificate in order to be admitted to IIT, NIT, or IIIT via JEE. The only university where admission is granted based on the Home State Quota is NIT. The state in which you take your 12th board test is used to determine admission, not your home state. When receiving JoSAA counselling, the domicile certificate is not necessary. The JEE score of the applicants determines their admission.

Q:   What is the JEE Advanced closing rank for IIT?
A: 

The JEE Advanced closing rank for IITs differs. The cutoff ranks will vary for each of the 23 IITs based on their courses, seats offered and various other factors.
