That’s the highest among all AI and Data Science programmes across NITs. And yes, competition remains fierce. <\/span>But here’s something to consider: the cutoff showed a minor decline compared to JoSAA<\/a> 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n

NIT Warangal: How Cutoffs Changed?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Other state open category seats in the JoSAA 2024 counselling had a closing rank of 2948. In JoSAA 2025? It moved to 2952. A drop of just four points. Minimal, but still a shift.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

This slight change indicates that demand patterns are stabilising. More aspirants understand the value of AI and Data Science specialisations. And NIT Warangal remains the most sought-after destination.<\/span><\/p>\n

JEE Main 2026: AI and Data Science Cutoffs Across NITs<\/span><\/h2>\n

Not all NITs demand sky-high ranks. Some offer solid programmes with comparatively relaxed cutoffs.<\/span><\/p>\n

The following is a snapshot of the closing ranks for BTech AI and data science-related programs in top NITs (Other State, Open, Gender-Neutral category):<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

NIT Patna offers the most relaxed entry. Its 5-year dual degree in CSE with Data Science specialisation closed at 17439 in JoSAA 2025. Good alternative when your rank falls within that range.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Does This Mean for JEE Main 2026 Aspirants?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Cutoffs fluctuate. Slightly. Every year.<\/span><\/p>\n
