Hello Harshit,
The total marks of JEE advanced exam varies every year. So with respect to the previous year admissions, I may tell you in terms of ranks.
Your category rank should be below 500 so that you can get a seat at IIT-Kharagpur. -
Hello, every year, cut off is different for different course and also you will get admission or not is based on your categories. But, I can assure you that you can go to any Top IIT in any branch. Branch really won't matter that much. What I see here in IIT KGP is that mining engineers get placed in Goldman Sachs, while metallurgy engineers are CEO of Google. Just give your best in JEE and get as better college as you can. You can study any course being in any branch.
