Do cutoffs change between Round 1 and Round 6?

Yes. Cutoff ranks typically expand (relax) from Round 1 to Round 6 as higher-ranked candidates withdraw, upgrade to IITs, or accept alternate seats.

Where can I find official cutoff PDFs?

Official cutoffs are published after every round on the official JoSAA portal at josaa.nic.in/archive.

JoSAA Opening & Closing Rank Analysis

Opening Rank (OR) is the highest rank admitted to a branch in a particular round, while Closing Rank (CR) is the lowest rank admitted.

Cutoff Window = [Opening Rank, Closing Rank] for (Institute, Branch, Quota, Category)

Calculation Steps

1Select Institute Name (e.g. NIT Trichy, NIT Surathkal, IIIT Allahabad).
2Filter by 4-Year B.Tech specialization (Computer Science, ECE, Mechanical, etc.).
3Select Quota (Home State vs Other State) and reservation Category.
4Analyze opening and closing rank dynamics across counselling rounds.

Practical Example

Scenario: Checking NIT Trichy Computer Science (OS Quota, OPEN Category)

Inputs: Institute: NIT Trichy | Branch: CSE | Quota: Other State | Category: OPEN

Calculation: Opening Rank: ~1,500 | Closing Rank: ~5,164 in JoSAA Final Round

Result: Cutoff Range: 1,500 - 5,164
