Candidates who score around 50 marks in JEE Main 2026 often look for an estimate of the corresponding percentile. However, the testing agency calculates percentiles based on the normalisation process, which depends on the difficulty level of each shift and the performance of all candidates. NTA will release the official percentile only along with the JEE Main 2026 results. Any percentile estimate before the result declaration should be treated as indicative, not final. The expected JEE Mains percentile 2026 for 50 marks is as follows
