For BTech programs, you must have earned the minimum number of needed marks in your 10+2 or equivalent coursework in a relevant Science discipline (science for engineering programs).
Entrance tests at the national level, such as JEE Main rank, determine admission. Usually, direct admission is not granted based on grades from the 12th grade.
Therefore, only if you have a valid JEE Main scorecard may you enroll in BTech immediately after 12th grade. Counseling is done according to status.
A BTech or BE degree with a strong percentage in a relevant specialisation is required for admission to M.Tech programs.
A pass on entrance tests such as the GATE or NET may be necessary for direct admission to the M.Tech program. Some programs also allow graduates who do not have a GATE to join.

Direct admission following the 12th grade is available for other programs, such as BSc or integrated MSc, and is determined by the results of the 12th grade. However, some can still demand entrance exams.
In conclusion, you need to have a JEE Main rank for a BTech, a GATE certification may be needed for an MTech, and a 12th grade transcript is adequate for other fundamental Science programs. For detailed requirements, please visit the official website before applying.
