Students who score between 130 and 150 marks in the JEE Main 2026 exam can expect to get admission into some National Institutes of Technology (NITs). Based on past trends, this score range is likely to get a percentile of 97-98+ , placing them in the rank range of under 45,000. This score opens doors to mid-tier and newer NITs, especially for engineering branches like Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering (EEE). Sometimes, even Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) and Computer Science (CS) might be possible, particularly through the Home State quota or in later admission rounds.
This analysis helps students understand their chances of getting into an NIT with a JEE Main 2026 score of 130 to 150.
Expected NITs for 130-150 Marks in JEE Main 2026
Here is a list of NITs where students might get a seat with a score between 130 and 150 marks in JEE Main 2026. The branches listed are based on what has been available in previous years.
