Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur admits B.Tech and other UG students through JoSAA on the JEE Main CRL rank. In JoSAA 2026 the most competitive program was Computer Science and Engineering, which closed at 18,799 (Other State quota, OPEN, gender-neutral, final round), and the last program to close was Chemistry at 65,680. NITs keep a Home-State quota for students from the institute’s own state and an Other-State quota for everyone else — both are shown below.
Gender-neutral seats, JEE Main CRL rank. Round 1 is where each program opened; the final column is the last round in which it allotted a seat. Easiest-to-hardest order is the reverse of this table.

JEE Main 2026 rank (CRL or category rank), through JoSAA; B.Arch and B.Plan use the JEE Main Paper-2 rank.
Five rounds (Round 1 to Round 5); the closing rank in the final round is the cut-off most guides quote.
Yes. Half the B.Tech seats are Home-State (students from the state where the NIT is) and half Other-State; the two quotas close at very different ranks, so check the right table above.
