What is the cutoff of NIT Trichy for BE/B.Tech? I am a general category candidate from Tamil Nadu

First of all, congratulations on securing a decent percentile! At 98 percentile, your All India Rank would be around 18k. With this rank, you can expect to get a decent branch in a good NIT. However, if you're aiming for NIT Trichy, it all depends on your category and the state you belong to.

If you are in the general category and from other states, you might get core branches in NIT Trichy (in CSAB counseling) such as:

• Civil Engineering
• Chemical Engineering
• Metallurgical & Materials Engineering
• Production Engineering

On the other hand, if you are a home state student, you'll have better options and may secure circuital branches in NIT Trichy (in CSAB counseling) like:

• Computer Science and Engineering
• Information Technology
• Electronics and Communication Engineering
• Instrumentation & Control Engineering

For now, my advice would be—just focus on JEE Advanced! You might get even better choices.
