NIT Trichy JoSAA Round 3 Cutoff 2026: Opening & Closing Ranks for CSE, ECE, and Mechanical

NIT Trichy engineering admission for 2026 cycle is ongoing. It is based on the JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation) Cutoff 2026. It has releases seat allocation till Round 3 and is expected to release the Round 4 seat cutoff soon. The admission can be evaluated through opening and closing ranks allotted for branch-wise and institution-wise for accessible understanding of the admission process. Opening rank is the first rank to get seat allocation, while closing rank is the last rank to get admission in the branch for the specific round.

Based on the detailed list of opening and closing rankings shared for B.Tech branches (Computer Science Engineering, Electronics and Communication, and Mechanical Engineering) candidates can guess the admission possibility based on their JEE Advanced scores. The table details ranks based on Home state and other state quotas, category-wise for gender neutral seats. 

NIT Trichy JoSAA Round 3 Opening and Closing Rank: Computer Science Engineering 

As the most in-demand branch, Computer Science Engineering remains at the top choice among engineering aspirants. Admission to NIT Trichy's CSE branch can be challenging for open category. Open category cutoff is considered a benchmark for other category admission. For round 3 admission, the at-home state quota (gender neutral) opened at 1034 and closed at 3812 ranks, offering candidates falling under the range a chance for admission to the B.Tech in CSE. 

Candidates can refer to the table to check for category-wise distribution of opening and closing rank based on Home state and Other state quotas.
