Closing ranks: 446 – 3,188
These elite NITs — National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, NIT Karnataka, Surathkal, National Institute of Technology, Warangal, and Malaviya NIT Jaipur and others — offer Computer Science & Software Engineering (Female-only (including Supernumerary)) accessible only to candidates with JEE Main Category Ranks at or below 3,256. Competition here is among the most intense in Indian engineering admissions. NIT Karnataka, Surathkal and Malaviya NIT Jaipur and others are showing tightening competition year-over-year — meaning these seats are becoming progressively harder to secure. Notably, National Institute of Technology, Warangal and National Institute of Technology, Rourkela and others show an easing trend year-over-year, potentially offering a marginal window for borderline aspirants.
