what is the reservation criteria for IIT?. Please tell me the details

Currently, reservation of
15%- SC
7.5%- ST and
27%- OBC
seats is provided.

If the enough candidates do not meet minimum qaualifying criteria as per written tests, SC/ST candidates are permitted a relaxation of 50%.

But there are some clauses that needs to be considered.
After one year of study, only those candidates who are able to clear a cut-off in the End Semester Exams are allowed into regular studies at the IITs.

Also, the seats reserved for SC/ST students are not transferable to General Category and roll on to the next year's students from the Preparatory Courses.
