Hello Samant,
No, you can't take admission through JEE Mains as you have to appear in VITEEE and SRMJEEE to get admission in VIT and SRM University.

No, you will not get admission for any branch in NITs, as your rank is very low.

For NITs and IITs you need 75% + but there are some low colleges which expects less percentage. Go to shiksha's website and find colleges with less eligibility marks.

Prepare for JEE for one more year. And do hard work, clear your basic concepts and the main thing is to go through previous year JEE questions which will give you an idea and many of the questions will clear your misconceptions.

Hello Mahesh,
Normally, every state has common entrance test for admission to engineering colleges. Hence it's only CET through which you can get admission. Similarly for admissions to NITs it's JEE Mains which is the qualifying exam.

To secure a seat in top 5 NITs, you have to score anything around 240 for the core branch.

Hello Aakash,
The maximum marks are 360. But for the admission, there are reservations based on the caste and so for each category, there has a different cut-off (only for JEE Mains).
However, for general category, it is sufficient to score 300 and above to get a top NIT.
