Hi. Step 1: Check whether you are eligible for admission in IITs:
For IIT admissions, candidates are required to qualify class 12 or equivalent with relevant subjects, qualify the JEE Mains, and subsequently qualify the JEE Advanced. Eligibility criteria for JEE Mains:
The final examination of the 10+2 system with Physics Chemistry and Mathematics as compulsory subjects, or equivalent, recognised by any Central or State Board. The state code of eligibility, that is, the code of the state from where the candidate has passed Class 12 or equivalent, by virtue of which the candidate becomes eligible to appear in the JEE Main. Only candidates who have passed class 12 or equivalent in 2021/2022, or are appearing for the same in 2022, are eligible to appear for JEE Main 2022. Eligibility criteria for JEE Advanced. Candidates who are Indian Nationals must simultaneously fulfill each and every one of the following eligibility criteria for appearing for the JEE Advanced:
Performance in JEE Main (Paper 1): Candidates must have qualified JEE Main (Paper 1), and must also be among the top 2,50,000 candidates. The seat distribution for different categories looks like: Gen- EWS- 10%; OBC- NCL- 27%; SC- 15%; ST- 7.5%; Open- 40.5%; PWD- 5% horizontal reservation in all these mentioned categories. Age Limit: Candidates must have been born on or after October 1, 1996, for JEE Advanced 2022. However, SC/ ST/ PWD candidates are given a relaxation of 5 years. Number of attempts: A candidate can appear for the JEE Advanced for a maximum of two times in two consecutive years. Appearance in Class 12 or equivalent examination: Candidates must have appeared for class 12 or equivalent examination for the first time in 2020/2021 with Physics Chemistry and Maths as compulsory subjects. Earlier admission in IITs: A candidate should not have been admitted at an IIT earlier regardless of whether they continued in the programme or not, or accepted an IIT seat by reporting at a reporting centre in the past. Eligibility criteria for foreign nationals: Candidates who are NOT citizens of India and have studied/ are studying abroad at 10+2 level or equivalent at the time of registration for JEE Advanced 2022, are considered to be foreign nationals. Seats for such candidates are supernumerary, with a cap of 10% in every course. These candidates are NOT required to write the JEE Mains, and can straightaway register for JEE Advanced. Subject to fulfillment of other criteria.

First of all, I would congratulate you for getting a good rank in JEE Mains. Well, there seems to be a slight miss-match with the general trend of ratio between OBC Rank 1338 to General Rank 48k but According to your data if the OBC Rank 1338 You can get top branches like CSE, ECE, EEE in top 7 NITs like VNIT, NITC, NITW, NITRKL, NITK or MNIT which is a very good thing! Whereas it might be slightly difficult to get CSE branch in NIT-Trichy as CSE branch in NIT-Trichy has the highest cutoff amongst all NITs but you can still aim for CSE Branch in any of these 7 NITs (except for NIT-Trichy). Now talking about IITs, you need to provide your JEE Advanced Rank as JEE Mains Score cannot give you admission to IITs. So with this rank, You have very high chances of getting all top branches like CSE, ECE or EEE in top NITs. Good Luck for your Counselling!
