I qualified JEE Main with 77 marks and my rank in general category is around 104887. Can I get any branch in any NIT or IIIT?

I secured 88% in 12th and 91% in PCM from UP board.

Sorry as, you won't be able to get into any of the NIT's and IIIT's of the country with general category, try getting into private universities, cracking their own entrance test by performing well. These universities have great exposure and have great placements.

IITS are awarded to Advance top ranking students. NITs are awarded to Mains top ranking student. Getting IIT through Mains is not possible at all. And NITs are not possible at this rank too.

NIT, IIIT is not possible with this rank. However, you may consider other private colleges. Or, if you only want NIT, IIIT, then you should drop and work hard for the next JEE to crack with good marks. Good luck. Hope it helps.

Visit: https://josaa.nic.in/josaaorcrarchieve/Result/OpeningClosingRankArchieveN.aspx?Year=2017 and check the last year's cutoff's of your homestate NIT first as it is generally easier to get homestate NIT because of homestate quota.
