120 – 149 | 98.00 – 98.99 |
90 – 119 | 96.00 – 97.99 |

Note: The actual JEE Main percentile 2025 may vary depending on the number of candidates and paper difficulty.
If a candidate receives 150 points and there were 10,000 students in that session, with a rank of 5000, the percentile is as follows:
Percentile = 1000000 - 5000 ÷ 1000000 × 100 = 99.5
In other words, the candidate performed better than 99.5% of test takers.

On Question asked by student community
Hello
Yes, it creates a problem if you're 12th LC(state OBC) and JEE(Central OBC/EWS) categories differ.
JoSAA requires a central OBC-NCL certificate for OBC reservation; since Karnataka OBC isn't central, you will be treated as general, or you can use a Declaration for OBC-to-General conversions from during counseling, but switching to EWS needs you to have applied as EWS initially. Your EWS certificate works if you meet the income criteria, but yes the important thing is Central OBC list for OBC, not state list.
Hope it helps you, in case of any doubts you can directly drop your query or you can visit to Careers360.com
