No formal verbatim in favor of JoSAA reducing eligibility cut-off percentages for B.Arch. courses for the OBC category in 2025. The current eligibility criteria stand at 75% (65% for SC/ST) in 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics or amongst the top 20 percentile of the board along with qualifying in JEE Main Paper 2.
Relaxation for the OBC category is applicable only for those seats that are reserved with rank-based cut-offs. There is no relaxation regarding aggregate marks.
