The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) on Thursday issued a stern warning to coaching centres to avoid misleading advertisements and unfair trade practices as IIT-JEE examination results approach. The consumer rights watchdog has advised coaching institutes to strictly follow the 2024 guidelines set for such entities.
According to an official statement, coaching centres must ensure their representations are "accurate, clear, and free from misleading claims". The CCPA emphasised that advertisements should transparently disclose key details including students' names, ranks, course types, and whether courses were paid for.
The authority has explicitly cautioned coaching centres against making "assurances of guaranteed success" and mandated that disclaimers be displayed prominently in the same font size as other important information.
The CCPA has already taken significant enforcement action in this sector, issuing 49 notices and imposing penalties totalling Rs 77.60 lakh on 24 coaching centres for violations. These centres have been directed to discontinue misleading advertisements and unfair trade practices. Previous CCPA actions have targeted coaching centres offering services for various competitive examinations, including UPSC CSE, IIT-JEE, NEET, RBI, and NABARD, among others

Besides clearing the JEE Main cutoff, students also have to qualify the eligibility in their Class 12 board examination, which usually is 75 per cent aggregate for General and OBC and 65 per cent for SC, ST and PwD categories. These projections can slightly change, and the official cut-off will be declared by NTA with the final results of JEE Main, the IIT alumnus said.
According to Mohit Tyagi of Competishun, the JEE main cut-off to become eligible for JEE Advanced for the general category candidates will see an increase. According to Tyagi, the cut-off for general category candidate will be up from 90.7788642 last year to 92.19 this year. For OBC-NCL, he expects the cut-off to be 77.67.

Not all students of IIT Delhi are availing on-campus placement services, the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (IIT D) has revealed through an exit survey commissioned by the institute amongst the students who graduated in August 2024.
In this exit survey, 1411 (53.1 per cent) students confirmed that they have received a job offer. On the other hand, 224 (8.4 per cent) students responded that they were self-employed, whereas 45 (1.7 per cent) students informed that they are working for a start-up and 66 (2.5 per cent) students were involved in entrepreneurship.
As per the exit survey, 359 (13.5 per cent) IIT Delhi students responded that they are going for higher studies, 47 (1.8 per cent) PhD students informed that they are waiting for a post-doctoral research opportunity or for a faculty position. Similarly, 321 (~ 12.1 per cent) students informed that they are preparing for different examinations, for example, civil services, engineering services, and examinations required for different government jobs.
IIT Delhi also conducted an exit survey among the graduated students which revealed that only 5 per cent graduated students (from last year) were still looking for appropriate career opportunities. A large fraction of these students comprises of PhD scholars looking for Post-Doctoral Research opportunities abroad.
Students availing on-campus placement in 2023-2024 had increased by about 25 per cent from 2022-23, which includes a six-fold increase in number of PhD scholars. The total number of graduates in 2023-24 is higher than the previous year by close to 10 per cent, and the number of PhD graduates by 30 per cent.
For the first time, IIT Delhi conducted a special placement drive for PhD Scholars in June 2024, which helped to increase the number of offers by seven times compared to the previous year. Notwithstanding the success of the initial attempt at PhD placement, a large majority of these graduates are placed through off-campus placement which is to be expected as they are recruited to occupy niche roles.
With the placement season beginning at the Indian Institute of Technology (IITs) from December 1, many students have opted to sit out and not participate in this placement season. Why? They have managed to secure a PPO.
When students secure a placement offer before the placement drive starts on campus, that offer is called a pre-placement offer (PPO). The journey to securing a PPO begins over a year before the on-campus placement drive begins. Many engineering students take up summer internships during their course of study, be it as part of their curriculum or their own exploration. After successful completion of their internship period, some students are offered a full-time position by the company which changes their status from an intern to a permanent employee in that company.
The internships that students secure can be attained on-campus or off-campus, depending on students’ exploration and the institute’s partnerships. Pre-Placement Offer (PPO) is increasingly gaining popularity among IIT students. For example, IIT Madras (in the 2022-23 placement season) stated that the institute received a record-breaking 350 PPOs after the 2022 summer internships.
As stated by NTA in its official notification, students will be able to check JEE Main Session Two results from the below-mentioned website:
IITs provide 20% supernumerary quota to female students. The quota was implemented in 2018 based on the recommendations of a committee led by then IIT-Mandi Director Timothy Gonsalves, which called it “the required slight push”. While most IITs implemented a 14% quota for women in 2018-19, by 2019-20 it stood at 19% and by 2021-22, most of them had 20% seats for women. Six years on, data obtained by The Indian Express under the Right to Information (RTI) Act from 21 of the 23 IITs reveals a steady increase in the number of women entering these prestigious institutes.

The number of women rose from 908 women in 2017 to 2,124 in 2024 – a 133% jump at IIT-Kanpur. At IIT-Roorkee, the number went up from 1,489 in 2019-20 to 2,626 in 2024 — a 76.36% jump. IITs in Chennai, Mumbai, Guwahati and Kharagpur, too, saw similar increases. IITs Delhi and Bombay crossed the 20% threshold in 2017 — even before the quota was implemented. Of IIT Delhi’s 2,878 students that year, 607 or 21.09% were women. In the first semester of 2024 at IIT Delhi, that number stood at 840 — a rise of 38.39%. In the case of IIT Bombay, of 2,790 students in 2017, 570 or 20.43% were women.
While engineering continues to dominate as the most popular field, this has seen a dip in recent years. Going by the data, in 2023-24, about 24.5 per cent Indians in the US pursued engineering, which is nearly a 5 per cent drop of 29.6 per cent in 2021-22. Meanwhile, maths or computer science are the most popular fields drawing Indians, with 42.9 per cent pursuing these in 2023-24.
Given the rapid growth of technology-driven industries, students are increasingly opting for programmes that align with emerging fields such as artificial intelligence, data science and machine learning, explained Sachin Jain, country manager, Educational Testing Service (ETS) India and South Asia.
Foreign education consultants also attribute these shifting job market demands to the “explosive growth” in fields like artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science, and cybersecurity

JEE Main NTA scores are the normalised scores across multi-session papers and are based on the relative performance of all those who appeared for the examination in one session. The JEE Main 2025 marks obtained are converted into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees. NTA score is not the same as the percentage of marks obtained. The NTA score of a candidate has been calculated as follows:
(100 X Number of candidates appeared in the ‘Session’ with raw score equal to less than the candidate) / Total number of candidates who appeared in the ‘Session’

Candidates who rank within the top 2.5 lakh performers in the JEE Main 2025 exam will be eligible to appear for the JEE Advanced 2025 exam. JEE Advanced is a centralised gateway to admission in the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).
In multiple tweets, the NTA said that the agency takes utmost care in keeping the examination process transparent. The tweet reads, “NTA has always followed a transparent examination process, which allows candidates to view their recorded responses as soon as the provisional answer keys are released. The NTA considers every challenge to the provisional Answer Key with utmost seriousness.”
The National Testing Agency (NTA) concluded the paper 1 exams of the second session of the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) on April 9.
Going by recent trends, the general category cutoff is expected to be between the 93 to 95 percentile, which is approximately equivalent to about 85–90 marks out of 300. For OBC-NCL and EWS candidates, the cutoff is likely to be a bit lower, about 91 to 93 percentile, with scores around 80–85 marks.
For SC candidates, the cutoff percentile is likely to be around 82 to 86 and for ST candidates, around 73 to 80 percentile. This implies that candidates belonging to these categories might need to secure between 50 to 65 marks. PwD candidates are likely to have a lower cutoff of around 40 to 45 percentile, IIT alumnus and co-founder said.

"I joined the institute in July 2024. I had never lived in a hostel or for that matter anywhere away from home. It was only after I left for college that I realised I wouldn’t be going back home for a while. I’ve always liked roti sabzi so the mess food wasn’t too bad at first, though by now I’ve grown tired of it. After 2 years of seeing the same group of 30 or so batchmates in my coaching, it was nice to meet a lot of new people. I’m not a very social person but I enjoy spending time with my friends. Finding friends didn’t feel too difficult, most people were in the same boat as me." Here's how Aneesh Rao from IIT Ropar say about life in IIT.
