Hi Varma Abhinav, yes you really have great chances to get admission in all of these colleges.
You can get SASTRA University under stream 1 as it includes both JEE main or and board exam marks for admission.
B.S Abdur rahman conducts entrance exam called BSAUEEE for admissions into B.Tech programmes but it also accepts JEE main scores so you can get that too. The name has been changed to crescent university.
Thapar university also accepts JEE main scores for admission. I think they also consider the board exam marks like SASTRA University. so you have chances for admission in that college also.
Dhirubhai Ambani institute also admits through JEE scores and they also consider board exam marks. so that you have good chances of getting admission there also.
All the best!

Hi Krunal,

There are indeed a lot of career options; you just need to find your perfect place either
On the stage or
