The Indian Institute of Information Technology Sri City has continued to witness strong competition for its B.Tech programs in JoSAA counselling. The IIIT Sricity cutoff 2026 Round 5 has now been released. Among the available branches, Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) remains the most competitive, with the General category closing rank reaching 23,052 in Round 5. Artificial Intelligence and Data Science followed closely with a closing rank of 25,035, and Electronics and Communication Engineering closed at 29,473.
Last year as well, the cutoff at Sricity IIIT remained competitive for popular courses. For example, CSE (General, Gender-Neutral) closed at around 26,387 rank, while Artificial Intelligence and Data Science closed slightly higher at 27,291 rank.
For OBC-NCL, CSE closed near 8,843 in Round 5 this year, showing consistent demand across categories, though still lower than last year's final-round figure of 10,575. Based on these trends, the IIIT Sricity cutoff 2026 is likely to move up further as the remaining rounds are conducted, particularly for CS-related branches.

IIIT Sri City Cutoff Percentile (Expected vs Rank)
The IIIT Sricity cutoff percentile is not released officially, as admissions are based on JEE Main ranks. However, percentile can still give students a rough idea of their chances. Since rank and percentile are closely related, students can use expected ranges to understand where they stand for admission at Sricity IIIT.
For IIIT Sri City, the competition is moderate compared to top IIITs, but still strong for CSE and Artificial Intelligence branches. Based on this year's Round 5 and previous year's final-round cutoffs, students with higher percentiles have better chances of getting top branches in early JoSAA rounds.
Expected Percentile vs Rank for IIIT Sricity
| Percentile | Expected Rank Range | Admission Chances |
| 99.0+ | Below 15,000 | Very High (CSE, AI & DS) |
| 98.0 – 99.0 | 15,000 – 30,000 | High (Strong chances in top branches) |
| 96.0 – 98.0 | 30,000 – 50,000 | Moderate (Possible in later rounds) |
| 93.0 – 96.0 | 50,000 – 80,000 | Low (Limited chances) |
| Below 93 | Above 80,000 | Very Low |
IIIT Sricity Top Branch Cutoff Comparison and Trends
CSE has a lower closing rank, which means it is more competitive compared to other branches at Sricity IIIT. More students prefer CSE due to better placement opportunities.
Artificial Intelligence and Data Science closes at a slightly higher rank, making it a bit less competitive than CSE, but still one of the top choices among students.
The rank gap between CSE and AI & DS is not very large, which shows that both branches are highly in demand and closely preferred by students.
Overall, CSE remains the top choice, while AI & Data Science is emerging as a strong alternative with increasing competition every year.
