No, you can not get into CSE/IT/ENTC in NIT/IIIT or GIFT with a CRL of 273071 and an OBC rank of 95501 in JEE Mains. You can check for other private colleges and state engineering colleges with other means.

With 66.1357 percentile and an AIR of 505570 in the general category, getting admission into any IIIT (Indian Institute of Information Technology) through JoSAA Counselling is highly unlikely. Here's a detailed explanation
IIITs have very high cutoffs, especially for General category students. Typically, General category closing ranks for IIITs go up to 40,000–70,000 AIR (approx), depending on:
The branch (CSE being most competitive)
The IIIT's location and popularity
Your rank (505570) is far beyond these cutoffs.

At a very disappointing score in JEE Mains percentile, it is best to ready oneself to target those colleges in Uttar Pradesh which either offer direct admissions, or whose admission process is controlled by their self-counseling system (as in most colleges), in which admission will be secured on the basis of 12 th board marks or a college specific entrance test. Among the alternatives with rather lesser fees and wider admission standards one may mention G.L. Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management (Mathura/Greater Noida), Noida Institute of Engineering and Technology (NIET) Greater Noida, ABES Engineering College Ghaziabad

With a JEE Main rank between 8 to 9 lakh, your chances for NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs through JoSAA/CSAB are extremely low, even with reserved categories. However, you can still get into decent private and state engineering colleges—especially if you make use of state counselling, private university entrance routes, and some lower-tier institutions.

It will require a very high JEE Advanced rank to get admissions in an IIT. In the top IITs (e.g Bombay, Delhi) popular branches such as Computer Science Engineering (CSE) may require an All India Rank (AIR) of below 100-200 in the General category. In other faculty members and newer IITs ranks can go up to 10,000 or more depending upon the institute, course or degree. These cut offs vary every year depending on the difficulty level of the exam, applicants and seats.

The likely JEE Main 2026 cutoff for qualifying JEE Advanced is above 92 percentile for the general category. To gain admission to NITs or IIITs (core branches), target a score of 210–250+ marks, which corresponds to around the 99th percentile.

It highly depends on your both ranks,
You must have search if you rank is lower in unreserved ranks or category ranks
If you have lower rank in category rank you must use the category rank in college prediction.
In maximum case the category ranks are much lower than you should use category rank to get the best college
Thank you

With 9.1 lakh rank in JEE Mains chances at NITs, IIITs or GFTIs are almost zero unless you have a super strong category rank. You can still get private colleges that accept JEE score like Amity, SRM, Chitkara or Galgotias. Also, try state counselling some keep seats open in spot rounds.

With 82 percentile and general category, it'll be hard to get NITs or IIITs but you can still try state engineering colleges in Haryana like DCRUST Murthal or YMCA Faridabad through HSTES counselling. Private colleges like Amity or Panipat Institute are also options if placements matter to you.

If your JEE Mains rank is 2,33,795 you can give JEE advanced since eligibility is being among top 2,50,000 in Mains plus meeting academic criteria.
