Ans: With a CRL around 1.71 lakh, as a General male from West Bengal Home State, getting Mechanical at IIEST Shibpur or NIT Durgapur through regular JoSAA is unrealistic since in 2024 IIEST Shibpur Mechanical (HS Open) closed at rank 34,075 and NIT Durgapur Mechanical (OS Open) at 26,917. Admission to IIITs is even less likely because most do not offer Mechanical-related branches and are more competitive. JoSAA’s (opening & closing ranks) archive is the best source to review 2022–2024 trends. More feasible options include CSAB Special Rounds, selected GFTIs, and some newer or lower-demand NIT core branches if vacancies arise, such as Mechanical or Production Engineering at NIT Agartala and Mechanical at BIT Mesra. For pursuing MS abroad, focus on Mechanical, Production, or Materials at the best institute available, then build a strong CGPA, project experience, skills in CAD, controls, robotics, internships, and research. Between college reputation and niche branch, college quality combined with academic performance matters more. Also consider WBJEE counseling and good private colleges as solid backup options instead of relying only on JoSAA/WBJEE. ALL the BEST for Your Ward's Prosperous Future!

Ans: As you are selling inherited gold, the holding period of the mother and cost of mother is considered. On long term capital gain, tax of 12.5% is applicable.

For gold acquired before April 1, 2001, you can use a valuation report from a registered valuer to establish the Fair Market Value (FMV) as of April 1, 2001. This FMV, or the actual purchase cost (whichever is higher), is considered the cost of acquisition for calculating Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) tax upon sale.

Ans: For IIT admission, you must crack JEE Advanced, which you have not done. With the mentioned JEE Mains score, consider other branches or target NITs/IIITs instead.

Good luck.

Ans: If a student from the ICSE/ISC Board is targeting both JEE (Main + Advanced) and entrance exams of private engineering colleges, one very important point must be clearly understood: strong command over NCERT textbooks of Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics is absolutely essential, especially for JEE preparation. Many ICSE students are strong in concepts, but JEE questions are heavily aligned with NCERT + application-based problem solving, particularly in Chemistry.

There is generally no separate board-specific online coaching for engineering entrance exams, because most reputed coaching institutes provide a standard JEE-oriented curriculum for all students, irrespective of whether they come from CBSE, ICSE, ISC, or State Boards. The difference lies not in the coaching material, but in how well the student adapts and balances school preparation with entrance preparation.

Before selecting any JEE online coaching institute, parents and students should carefully compare multiple options by considering these major factors: faculty quality and JEE teaching experience, ICSE/ISC + JEE syllabus alignment, strong Maths concept-building support, regular live doubt-clearing sessions, quality online mock tests with detailed analysis and solutions, small batch size or personal mentoring, recorded classes for revision, board exam + JEE balance strategy, parent progress reports and feedback, and transparent fees with scholarship/refund policy.

The best approach is simple: Google the top JEE online coaching platforms, attend demo classes, compare these 10 factors carefully, and then choose the one that best matches the student’s learning style, discipline level, and career goals. ALL the BEST for the Student's Prosperous Future!

Ans: Sorry. On this platform, it is not advisable to highlight the specific name of the private coaching institute. Since your son is already in the process, he can obtain the information from his friends. Really sorry.

Good luck.

Ans: Yes, you can upload Semester 1 and 2 marksheets from DigiLocker, but confirm with the specific institute. However, it is better to contact your college's administrative office for further clarification.

Ans: CSE @ Shibpur seems challenging and has slim chances, but you have good chances for ECE/EE there and in lower–mid NITs/IIITs like NIT Durgapur, NIT Silchar, IIIT Kurnool, and IIIT Bhagalpur.

Good luck.

Ans: Chances of CS @ top NITs seem slim, but possible in mid/lower NITs or IIITs (ECE more feasible), while a 175 in BITSAT is low for CS/ECE at BITS Pilani campuses.

Good luck.
