My friend you will not get admission in Indian Institute of Technology after completing diploma. Unfortunately there is no provision in Indian Institute of Technology to offer lateral entry admission to diploma holders.
As you may know that diploma holders are eligible for admission through lateral entry scheme. Which means that they can take admission into the second year of B.Tech course. This is unfortunately not possible in Indian Institute of Technology.
The admission procedure for IIT is as following. The candidate has to first compelte 12th standard with PCM subjects and then apply for the entrance exam. Till last year IIT-JEE entrance exam was conducted to offer admission into Indian Institute of Technology.
From this year onwards, ISEET entrance exam will be conducted for the same. The requirement to appear for ISEET is as following:-
1. Must have completed 12th standard from recognized board.
2. At least 40 percent marks in 12th standard.
The diploma holders are not eligible to appear for ISEET entrance exam for IIT-JEE. The diploma course is not considered equal to 12th standard. Therefore it is simply impossible to take admission in IIT through lateral entry scheme.
The same is the same for National Institute of Technology (NIT), in case you are planning to take admission in it. You will have to appear for same ISEET entrance exam for admission in National Institute of Technology.
However such rule is not applied to other engineering colleges. They accept candidates through lateral entry scheme. For which you will have to appear for Lateral Entry Engineering Test (LEET). You must have minimum of 60 percent marks in diploma to appear for LEET.
