1. At what age does your son have to start coaching for IIT?
It has three perfect points of entry, depending on the speed of your child:
- Option A: Enter in Class 11 (Most widespread and not less than enough)
The majority of IIT toppers start coaching when they are in Class 11.
Coaching Class 11 -12 (2-year program) is just sufficient to crack JEE Main and Advanced.
This leaves Class 910 free to construct basics and score highly with the boards.
- Option B: Major in Class 10 (Early foundation - optional)
Beneficial in case your son is interested in physical sciences ahead of his age in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics.

With a JEE Main rank of 88,000 (OBC rank ~21,000), admission to top NITs/IIITs for CSE/IT is unlikely.
Best options:
Lower-tier NITs – Mechanical, Civil, ECE branches.
GFTIs (Government-Funded Technical Institutes) – CSE, ECE, IT possible.
State engineering colleges – Good alternatives with decent infrastructure and placements.
