You can apply consecutively for 3 years.

Those candidates who have completed 12th standard from a recognized board with physics, chemistry and mathematics with above 50% marks then you are eligible for JEE Main exam. 5% marks relaxation is provided for SC/ST category candidates.

Your age should be in between 17 to 25 years.

Candidates are eligible for only three attempts. Some preference is given to reservation category candidates only.

The number of attempts of JEE Mains exam is limited to 3 and hence you can given JEE-Mains exam only thrice. Official document of the eligibility criteria has been attached and you can download the file to get full details.

The number of attempts you can have for JEE Mains is equal to three.But if you are planning to give JEE Advanced after that then I must tell you that you have only two attempts to give JEE Advanced.
These attempts cannot be taken at whichever as you please but are to be taken consecutively after the year in which you give your 12th standard exams.
