As the cutoff tends to vary each year, so the exact cutoff is tough to predict for that. However, on an average you need to score around 150 -165 marks in JEE Mains to get CSE at NIT, Patna. Your OBC category will you also to get this college.

It depends on the branch you're looking for. For Home State Quota and OBC Quota, NIT Patna closed at about 8500 OBC rank in 2018. For this rank, equivalent marks in JEE Main 2018 were 122 marks. On a general note, try to score 140+ for admission at NIT Patna with HS+OBC quota and 160+ for any branch
