With a 90.09 percentile in JEE Mains, an EWS candidate has a good chance of getting into IIIT Bhopal, particularly for CSE, though it may depend on the specific year's cutoff trends and the number of available seats. While a 90 percentile is generally considered competitive for IIITs, it's not a guarantee for top branches in the most sought-after institutions. 

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Factors to Consider:

IIIT Bhopal's Specific Cutoffs:

IIIT Bhopal's cutoff ranks for CSE, especially for the EWS category, can vary each year. Check past years' cutoff data on Shiksha . 

Competition:

The competition for CSE seats in IIITs, especially the newer ones like IIIT Bhopal, can be quite high, even for reserved categories. 

Other Options:

If IIIT Bhopal doesn't work out, consider other IIITs with potentially lower cutoffs for CSE or explore other branches in IIIT Bhopal or other NITs. 

JoSAA Counselling:

Participate actively in the JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) counselling process, as this is where seat allotment takes place. 

Spot Rounds:

Keep an eye on spot rounds, which might offer additional opportunities if seats remain vacant after the main rounds. 

General Guidelines for EWS Candidates:

90-92 Percentile:

For some IIITs, particularly those with lower rankings, a 90-92 percentile can be sufficient for CSE in the EWS category.

85-90 Percentile:

Lower-tier IIITs or other branches like IT or ECE in newer IIITs might be more accessible with this percentile. 

Recommendation:

1. Check past cutoffs:

Look at historical data for IIIT Bhopal's EWS category for CSE to assess your chances. 

2. Stay informed:

Follow the JoSAA counselling schedule and any updates regarding spot rounds. 

3. Be flexible:

If you don't get your preferred branch or IIIT, consider other options and be open to exploring different possibilities. 

By actively participating in the counselling process and staying informed, you can increase your chances of securing a seat in IIIT Bhopal or other suitable institutions.
