Rajasthan produced the most number of candidates with 100 percentile at seven. The state was followed by Maharashtra and Telangana (four each), Uttar Pradesh (three), West Bengal (two), and one each from Gujarat, Delhi, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh.
Among the 24 toppers, two are female candidates. Devdutta Majhi from West Bengal and Sai Manogna Guthikonda from Andhra Pradesh.
NTA also announced the category-wise percentile cut-offs for eligibility to appear in JEE Advanced 2025.
For the unreserved (UR) category, candidates needed to score at least 93.10 percentile.
The cut-off for the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) was 80.38, for OBC-NCL it was 79.43, for Scheduled Castes (SC) it was 61.15, and for Scheduled Tribes (ST) the cut-off stood at 47.90 percentile.

NTA had implemented strict measures for fairness and integrity. This included AI-based video analytics, 5G jammers, live CCTV surveillance, and biometric attendance systems.
The results of 110 candidates were withheld due to the use of unfair means, while another 23 were held for discrepancies in identity verification.
Qualified students will proceed to JEE Advanced, the gateway to admission into the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).
Notably, 8,33,536 candidates registered for both sessions, and 7,75,383 appeared in both. For those who took the exam twice, the better of the two scores was considered for the final result.
