Closing ranks: 12,356 – 16,920
These elite NITs — National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, National Institute of Technology, Warangal, NIT Calicut, and NIT Karnataka, Surathkal and others — offer Civil & Infrastructure Engineering (Female-only (including Supernumerary)) accessible only to candidates with JEE Main Category Ranks at or below 17,192. Competition here is among the most intense in Indian engineering admissions. Malaviya NIT Jaipur and Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology, Nagpur are showing tightening competition year-over-year — meaning these seats are becoming progressively harder to secure. Notably, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli and National Institute of Technology, Warangal and others show an easing trend year-over-year, potentially offering a marginal window for borderline aspirants.
