It is not needed to appear for the Mains paper but it is required at the time of admission in any IIT NIT or GFTI as according to the JEE Mains guidelines.

Usually, JEE Main exam requires a minimum of 75% for the general category and 65% for the reserved category in the 12th class examination. However, this year NTA has discarded the percentage criteria and only the 12th pass Certificate is required for registration.
