I completed HSC from Bihar board in 2018. I have scored about 140-150 marks in JEE Mains (April) 2019. I have scored 39 percentile in JEE Mains (January).

    Hello dear,
    Heartiest congratulations for qualifying JEE advance but at the same time I want to mention that for JEE advance one have to fulfill the criteria which is-
    The candidates will have to satisfy at least one of the following two criteria for admission to IITs: The candidate should have passed 10+2 or equivalent examination with an aggregate of at least 75%marks. For SC/ ST and PwD candidates, there is a relaxation of 10% as they need the aggregate of minimum 65% marks. Second you have to under top 20 percentile of your boards.
    Best of luck.

No, your candidature will be rejected as you need to have minimum of 75% in class 12 to be eligible for admisison to the IITs, NIT, IIITs and GFTIs via the JoSAA counselling. Even if you pass JEE Advanced and JEE Main, of you do not have 75% minimum marks in class 12 boards you will no get admissions.
