Let me clear few things. To get admission in IIT, one must clear JEE Mains as well as JEE Advance with good ranking.
For NITs admission, you need not appear for JEE Advance. A good rank in Mains is enough.
Next comes OBC category. Unlike SC/ST or OBC, there are two categories further. Creamy layer and non-creamy layer. If your family income is up to Rs.5 lakhs, you are non-creamy layer. But, if it is above that, you will be treated as creamy layer and you will be treated as general category student.
And, you don't need to score a 90% marks in your class 12th boards. In fact, 70% marks is the eligibility criteria for JEE Mains. -
