Is there any reservation for home state candidates for XLRI and is there any preference for girls in XLRI?
To get into XLRI, one has to make it to their merit list. You are wrong to believe that one has to secure a sort of special preference just because they are a "home candidate" in particular.
XLRI neither is under any such compulsion nor does it reserve any seats for any candidate like that. As a matter of fact, no institute does that. Just like the boys, the girls who are admitted at XLRI too possess the apt skills and smartness it takes to reach there. Whatever is taught to girls is similar to what is taught to the boys too. Believing in a misconception like that should be corrected right away.
To conclude, all I would like to say is that be it XLRI or any other institute- not even a single one of them in today's time cares about gender preference. If you are smart, you would be welcomed and respected everywhere.

It is currently too early to provide a definitive answer regarding the outcome of your question. However, there are cases where students were in a similar situation as you and become anxious as well as desperate to want a seat. It is advised to have patience and go with the flow.
There was a case where a student had a waitlist number of 2XX, and no one was convinced that it is possible to convert at that number. However, due to various factors such as the uncertainty caused by Covid, online classes, and other factors, the waitlists may go even further than in previous years. He received an admission offer to IIM Sambalpur, which was something he had been waiting for.
There may be many factors that come into play such as external and internal factors that may influence the process, such as batch strength. It is important to keep an open mind and have patience as the outcome may be different from what you expect.
