2026 closing ranks, final JoSAA round. ▲ means the branch closed at a larger rank than in 2025, so it was easier to get.

Reading these numbers

  • Closing rank is the last rank admitted to that branch in the final round. If your rank is below it, you were in range last year.
  • Home State quota applies if NIT Patna is in your state of eligibility; everyone else competes under Other State. IITs use All India only.
  • Cutoffs move every year with paper difficulty and applicant numbers. Treat them as a guide, not a guarantee.
