Yes, you can do B.Tech after completing a Polytechnic Diploma. There are two ways to get admission into a B.Tech programme after Polytechnic: Lateral Entry: Most engineering colleges in India offer lateral entry admission to Diploma holders in engineering programs. Under the lateral entry scheme, candidates can get direct admission into the second year of the B.Tech programme. The admission criteria may vary from college to college, and some may require you to clear an entrance exam for lateral entry admission. Admission through Regular Entry: You can also apply for admission to the first year of the B.Tech programme after completing your Polytechnic Diploma. In this case, you need to appear for the relevant entrance exam, such as JEE Main BITSAT or state-level entrance exams, and meet the eligibility criteria for admission. The eligibility criteria for B.Tech admission may vary across colleges and universities. Generally, candidates must have completed their 10+2 with Physics Chemistry and Mathematics as mandatory subjects, and should have scored the minimum qualifying marks in the relevant entrance exam. Therefore, if you have completed your Polytechnic Diploma and want to pursue a B.Tech programme, you can check the admission criteria of the colleges where you want to apply and prepare accordingly. You can also seek guidance from experienced teachers or mentors to understand the admission process and prepare effectively for the entrance exam.

Polytechnic is different than the 10+2 degree or intermediate degree. The criteria for admission in B.Tech 1st year in any colleges is 10+2 or intermediate. The criteria for Direct admission in second year is 3 years Diploma in engineering from a recognized college or university. However, a student can apply for an equivalence certificate "Polytechnic degree-equivalent to 10+2" to the department of polytechnic education of the district or the state where he have pursued the polytechnic degree. The equivalence certificate can also be get by the authorities "Registrar-Admission Department" of the college or university where you are seeking to get admission.
