Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering Cutoff Across All GFTIs — OPEN (Female-only (including Supernumerary)) | JoSAA 2025 Complete Rankings

Ghani Khan Choudhary Institute of Engineering and Technology, Malda, West Bengal had the highest (most accessible) OPEN closing rank for Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering in JoSAA 2025, at 88,472 in Round 6. National Institute of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, Ranchi was close at approximately 74,607.

With a OPEN rank of ~71,496, Gati Shakti Vishwavidyalaya, Vadodara Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering (R6 closing: 71,496) is your primary borderline target. Birla Institute of Technology, Patna Off-Campus (R6 closing: 71,947) 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. GFTIs generally carry stronger brand value and alumni networks, but top NITs have comparable placement records in Mechanical & Manufacturing 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 OPEN 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.
