NIT Calicut Cutoff 2024 for OBC All India Category 

For the OBC category candidates, the JEE Main cutoff ranks were comparatively tough for admission in 2024 as compared to the students belonging to the General AI quota. Considering the first and last rounds, CSE was the most demanded specialisation for admission among engineering aspirants. For CSE admission, the JEE Main cutoff ranks saw a shift in its closing ranks from the initial till its last round. An increase in the last-round cutoff ranks indicated that the seats remained unfilled, which led to less competition in the last round, allowing more students to be admitted at NIT Calicut.
