How to read this

Percentile needed = 100 − (target rank × 100 ÷ 15,38,468)

The percentile is fixed by the number of candidates. The marks behind it depend on your shift: NTA works out a separate percentile for each shift, so a tough shift needs fewer marks for the same percentile. Tap a rank for what it means for JEE Advanced and for colleges.

These are Common Rank List (CRL) ranks. Category ranks are separate and much smaller. To go from marks to rank instead, use the marks vs rank table.
