What OBC rank should I get in order to get into IIT Delhi?

The OBC (Other Backward Classes) rank required for admission into IIT Delhi depends on several factors, including the specific branch you wish to pursue and the cut-off trends for that year. IIT Delhi is one of the top IITs, and therefore the competition is high. As a result, the cut-off ranks for IIT Delhi tend to be relatively low for highly sought-after branches and higher for less popular branches.

The cut-off ranks for OBC candidates vary across years and depend on the following:

1. Branch Popularity:
   Popular branches such as Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) or Electrical Engineering typically have a higher cut-off rank, even for OBC candidates. For these branches, the OBC category cut-off rank can be in the range of 1000 to 2500, depending on the year’s competition.
2. Other Factors:
• The total number of available seats.
• The number of candidates appearing for the exam.
• Changes in the difficulty level of the JEE Advanced exam.

For instance, in previous years, the OBC cut-off rank for CSE at IIT Delhi was around 1000, but for branches like Civil Engineering, the cut-off might be around 4000-5000.
