Tier 1 — Elite NITs (Closing Rank Below 8,123)
These elite NITs — National Institute of Technology, Warangal and National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra — offer Mathematics & Computing (Female-only (including Supernumerary)) accessible only to candidates with JEE Main Category Ranks at or below 8,123. Competition here is among the most intense in Indian engineering admissions. National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra is showing tightening competition year-over-year — meaning these seats are becoming progressively harder to secure.
