Sir I have completed my 10th from CBSE board and I failed in 11th now I am pursuing 12th from NIOS board. Am I eligible for polytechnic entrance of state level in 2017 on the base of 12th NIOS board? Please help me.

Yes, you are eligible for appearing in polytechnic entrance exam in 2017. NIOS stands for 'National Institute of Open Schooling'. It is a government authorized board. If you had completed your intermediate(without any backlog) from this board, then you are definitely eligible for polytechnic entrance exam in 2017.

Polytechnic entrance examinations are conducted by respective state technical board of education for offering admissions to interested candidates in polytechnic course in Private and Government polytechnic colleges of their respective state.

To be eligible to appear in Polytechnic entrance examination, the candidate should have passed 10th standard in all subjects with minimum qualifying marks from a Government recognised board. Candidates who have passed 12th standard with Vocational stream or two years ITI course from a Government recognised board/ institute are eligible to get direct admission in second year of Polytechnic course through Lateral entry admission process.

As per the information you have provided in your query, you have failed 11th standard and pursuing 12th standard from NIOS Board, so, you are not eligible to get direct admission in second year of Polytechnic course through Lateral entry admission process, so, I advise you to appear in Polytechnic entrance examination on basis of your 10th standard.

Earlier though most of the universities used to give less preference to the NIOS board students although it was at par with the other popular boards like ISC, CBSE and so on. But now if any university objects then it will be a clear violation of the resolution passed by the HRD Minister of India.
