OJEE Cutoff 2026: Expected Ranks and Category-wise Analysis

The Odisha Joint Entrance Examination Board (OJEEB) will release the OJEE Cutoff 2026 after the OJEE Counselling 2026 rounds in July-August 2026. The cutoff is the minimum qualifying rank or score required for admission to different colleges and courses through OJEE.

Cutoffs are expected to remain similar to 2025, with minor variations of approximately ±5–10% depending on exam difficulty and the number of candidates. Cutoffs may rise slightly by 5-7% in 2026 due to a 12% increase in OJEE registrations.

Expected Cutoff Range for B.Tech

  • The expected cutoff range for B.Tech will be around 1500-35000 for the General Category.
  • The cutoff may go up to 80,000 for SC/ST categories.
  • Electronics and Electrical branches may close between 18,000 and 25,000 ranks.
  • Mechanical, Civil, and Metallurgical branches are anticipated to close around 30,000–40,000 ranks.

OJEE Category-wise Cut-Off for B.Tech 2026

CSE and IT remain the most competitive branches, with closing ranks likely within 12,000–15,000. Core branches such as Mechanical, Civil, and Electrical have higher closing ranks, reflecting moderate demand.

The categories typically include General, SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and other special reservation groups recognised by the state. The OJEE cutoff varies depending on factors like seat availability, number of applicants in each category, and overall exam performance in a given year.

Branch-wise Expected Closing Ranks

Course Estimated Opening Rank Estimated Closing Rank
B.Tech – CSE 1 12,000
B.Tech – IT 1 15,000
B.Tech – ECE 1 18,000
B.Tech – Electrical Engineering 1 20,000
B.Tech – Mechanical Engineering 1 25,000
B.Tech – Civil Engineering 1 30,000

How to Calculate Cutoff Marks

The cutoff marks indicate the minimum percentage or marks needed to qualify for admission, counselling, or the next round of an examination. Students cannot determine the official cutoff directly, as it demonstrates overall performance, availability of seats, reservations, and the level of difficulty of the exam.

You can estimate your position based on your score and rank in your results. The cutoff mark signifies whether or not you are eligible for admission or counselling, given that you have scored higher than the cutoff for the next phase of selection (i.e. seat allotment) to the course.

OJEE B.Tech Cutoff 2026: Expected Category-Wise Ranks

Computer Science Engineering (CSE) is expected to have the highest demand in OJEE 2026. The General category cutoff for CSE is expected to close between rank 1 and 12,000.

Reserved categories for CSE also show high competition. OBC and EWS cutoffs are expected to close up to rank 22,000 and 18,000, respectively. This reflects a consistent 5–7% rise in competition compared to 2025.

Information Technology (IT) cutoffs are expected to mirror CSE trends. IT is expected to close around rank 15,000 for General and rank 22,000 for EWS.

Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) and Electrical Engineering attract mid-tier rank holders. Cutoffs for these branches are expected to range from 18,000 to 35,000 for General and OBC categories.

Mechanical and Civil branches show moderate relaxation in cutoffs. General category cutoffs for these branches extend up to 25,000–30,000, reflecting lower demand compared to software-focused streams.
