Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) ask for a minimum of 60% marks in your bachelor's degree in a relevant engineering branch. You need to work hard for your final BTech/B.E exams and make sure you get at least 60% marks overall, to be eligible for admission to the IITs in India. The competition is very high there, given their status and All-India ranking in India, and hence, their minimum marks requirement is also of a certain standard as compared to other colleges that may consider you for admission with 50 to 60% marks in graduation as well.

If you match the qualifying requirements, you can take the JEE Mains in 2026 after finishing your NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) exams. Your eligibility won't be impacted by the difference between your Class 10 and Class 12 grades as long you meet these requirements

Year of Passing: After passing Class 12 (or its equivalent), candidates are eligible to take the JEE Mains exam for the next two years. You can take JEE in 2026, 2027 and 2028 since you want to finish NIOS by 2026.
Subject Requirements: Since physics, chemistry and mathematics are required for JEE make sure they are covered in your NIOS curriculum.

You are ineligible for admission to NITs and IITs, JEE Mains and Advanced, and the West Bengal board if you failed Physics in your Higher Secondary (HS) test. The three subjects of physics, chemistry, and mathematics must be passed to be eligible for these tests and institutions. You have to pass your Physics exam, which you can do by retaking it or by taking extra tests. Following your successful completion of Physics, you can apply to NITs or IITs for engineering degrees by taking the JEE Mains and Advanced exams.
