    Hi,
    Yes, there is a reservation for physically handicapped student in IIT.
    Persons with disability (PWD) 3% seats in each of open, OBC-NCL, SC and ST category seats. The benefit would be given to those, who have at least 40% impairment irrespective of the type of disability i.e., locomotor, visual or severe dyslexic.
    Leprosy-cured candidates who are otherwise fit to pursue the courses are also included in this sub-category.
    You can check the below mentioned link for further details:

    All the best.
