Does counseling eligibility alone get you into IIT?

First of all, it is important to understand that IIT only releases minimum marks and subject-wise cut-off for counseling eligibility, and not guarantee admission.

Many students clear the cut-off, but are unable to get a college because seat allocation in IIT is based on rank, not just eligibility.
