at 4000 general category rank, IIT Delhi mainstream branches are closed:

  • CSE, ECE, EE, Mech, Chemical, Civil at IIT Delhi — all close in the range of 50–600 for general. 4000 rank won't get these
  • what might open at 4000 at IIT Delhi: Maths & Computing, Engineering Physics, Textile Technology, Production & Industrial Engineering — these close in the 3,000–5,000 range some years. marginal, check latest JoSAA data

better targets at 4000 general JEE Advanced:

  • IIT Guwahati — ECE, EE, Chemical might open
  • IIT BHU (Varanasi) — CSE, ECE, EE available
  • IIT Dhanbad/ISM — CSE, ECE
  • Newer IITs — CSE/ECE easily

check the exact closing ranks on josaa.admissions.nic.in for JoSAA 2024 — the Maths & Computing program at IIT Delhi is your best shot. if interdisciplinary programs interest you (like Maths & Computing), it's worth applying. if you want core engineering branches, focus on IIT Roorkee/Guwahati/BHU at 4000 general.
