Computer Science & Software Engineering Cutoff Across All IITs — ST (Gender-Neutral) | JoSAA 2025 Complete Rankings

IIT Jammu had the highest (most accessible) ST closing rank for Computer Science & Software Engineering in JoSAA 2025, at 771 in Round 6. IIT Bhilai was close at approximately 676.

With a ST rank of ~257, IIT Bhubaneswar Computer Science & Software Engineering (R6 closing: 257) is your primary borderline target. IIT (ISM) Dhanbad (R6 closing: 287) represents a slightly safer option. Both should be included in your choice list, ordered by campus preference.

This is one of the most common JoSAA choice-filling dilemmas. IITs generally carry stronger brand value and alumni networks, but top NITs have comparable placement records in Computer Science & Software Engineering. The correct answer depends on your specific rank, target companies, and geographic preference — factors that justcutoffs.com's expert system weighs systematically.

A very small gap between opening and closing rank typically indicates a limited number of ST seats — often just 1–2 for that specific category. When only one seat is allotted, the single candidate's rank appears as both the opening and closing rank. Always verify seat availability alongside rank data before finalising your JoSAA choice list.
