The 75% marks criteria in JEE Main 2025 refers to the minimum marks required by candidates in class 12 to be eligible for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). As per the recent official notification of JEE Main 2025 Exam, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has not removed the minimum 75% marks criterion for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main Exam. Candidates who qualify the JEE Main Exam will be able to get admission to NITs, IIITs and CFTIs (Centrally Funded Technical Institutes) should have secured at least 75% marks in 12th class board exam.
NTA rule clearly states:
“For the candidates who qualify for admission in the NITs, IIITs and such other CFTIs whose admissions are based on the JEE (Main) ranks in Paper 1, they should have secured at least 75% marks in the class 12 examination or be in the top 20 percentile in class 12 examination conducted by respective boards.”
The minimum qualifying marks in class 12 for SC and ST candidates is 65%. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) and all state educational boards share the top 20 percentile in 12th class board with the NTA after the result declaration.

The National Testing Agency has removed the minimum 75% qualifying marks criteria only for JEE Main 2025 Exam so as to compensate for the learning loss that occurred due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Afterwards, in the year 2023, the NTA restored the criterion in JEE Main and the same is expected to be followed in the upcoming exam as well.
The JEE Main Exam also plays an eligibility criterion to appear in the JEE Advanced 2025 which is the only gateway exam for admission to the IITs. Candidates who pass class 12 board exams securing at least 75% marks in aggregate and qualify JEE Main with qualifying marks are considered eligible to take JEE Advanced 2025 (only first 2,50,000 candidates will be eligible to take the exam).
