With 60,000 rank in mains, which NIT can be expected?
Given your rank, and presumably your General Category, it is almost impossible to get into an NIT. In case you don’t have a proper NIT in your home state, go for IITs instead.
If you are however adamant about opting for an NIT only you will have to go for Mechanical, Civil, or Chemical Engineering as your specialization. Under these, you still have chances of making it into mediocre NITs like NIT Surat, NIT Calicut and Jaipur. If you want to go for Electrical, you can choose a below-average NIT if you are okay with it.

With this rank, it is not possible to get a seat in any top NIT in the 1st round and not even in the 2nd round. You might be able to secure a seat in the 3rd round but in less demanding courses.
As you have not mentioned your category, the following table shows the rank for Gender Neutral category:
| NITs | Branch | Closing Rank 2020 |
| Round 1 | ||
| NIT Goa | Civil Engineering | 74260 |
| NIT Hamirpur | Chemical Engineering | 69134 |
| NIT Raipur | Biotechnology Engineering | 66029 |
| NIT Srinagar | Metallurgical & Mechanical Engineering | 72583 |
| NIT Silchar | Mechanical Engineering | 60677 |
| Round 2 | ||
| NIT Jalandhar | Biotechnology Engineering | 62173 |
| NIT Meghalaya | Civil Engineering | 69624 |
| NIT Puducherry | Computer Science Engineering | 68822 |
| NIT Silchar | Electrical Engineering | 74412 |
| Round 3 | ||
| NIT Srinagar | Electrical Engineering | 71199 |
| NIT Silchar | Civil Engineering | 81852 |
| NIT Raipur | Mining Engineering | 66131 |
If you belong to minority categories, there will be better options but it is better not to get your hopes high. While it is worthy of celebrating that you have cleared JEE Main, but it is also important to have a backup plan. Give a try for IIT, COMEDK, BITS Pilani or VIT.
