How Rajit Gupta Topped JEE Advanced, Scored 100 Percentile Twice In Mains, Check His Strategy
Rajit Gupta from Kota topped JEE Advanced 2025 with AIR 1, after scoring 100 percentile in both January and April sessions of JEE Main. The results of the country's most prestigious engineering entrance exam, JEE Advanced 2025, have been declared. This year, All India Rank (AIR) 1 has been secured by Rajit Gupta, a student from Kota. Rajit had earlier achieved 100 percentile in both the January and April sessions of JEE Main 2025, consistently proving his academic excellence across both national-level exams. Interestingly, Rajit was so confident in his preparation that he didn't even check the answer key after the JEE exams. He attributes his success to conceptual clarity, discipline, and a calm approach — key qualities that helped him excel in both JEE Main and JEE Advanced. Rajit hails from Mahaveer Nagar in Kota. His father, Deepak Gupta, is an engineer with BSNL, and his mother, Dr. Shruti Agrawal, is a professor at JDB College. The family resides in Mahaveer Nagar. In his own words, Rajit shares his secret to success: 'Happiness is my key to success. I try to stay happy in all situations. I never followed a strict study schedule because that only creates unnecessary pressure. I studied when I felt like it, but whenever I did study, I studied with full focus. I made sure to clear my doubts before moving on to the next topic. My main focus was on not repeating mistakes, because correcting mistakes strengthens your foundation in any subject." Despite being the top ranker, Rajit remains grounded and cheerful. He still finds time to play with kids in his colony and enjoys his journey without burdening himself with excessive pressure. Once again, the city of Kota, Rajasthan, known as India's coaching capital, has proven its dominance in the JEE Advanced 2025 results. Students who were prepared in Kota have secured top ranks, with Rajit Gupta achieving All India Rank (AIR) 1. Following him, another Kota-based student, Saksham Jindal, secured AIR 2. Additionally, Akshat (AIR 6) and Devesh (AIR 8) also made it to the coveted top 10 list. With 4 out of the top 10 ranks going to Kota students, the city has once again established its leadership in engineering exam preparation. The dominance didn't stop there — Kota students also made a strong showing in the top 50 and top 100 ranks. Following the result declaration, the city erupted in celebration, with students and coaching institutes proudly marking the success.

'Correcting mistakes strengthens your foundation,' says JEE Advanced 2025 AIR 1 Rajit Gupta
JAIPUR: Rajit Gupta, a resident of Mahaveer Nagar in Kota, created history by securing All India Rank 1 in JEE Advanced 2025. He became the first local student from the coaching hub to achieve the top spot in the prestigious engineering entrance exam. The result was announced on Monday. Gupta, who earlier secured AIR 16 in JEE Main (April session) and achieved a 100 percentile score in the January session, credits his success to one principle: fixing mistakes. 'After getting 16th rank in JEE Main, I knew the road to the top wasn't going to be easy. I went back to the basics and focused only on not repeating my mistakes. Correcting errors is what truly strengthens your foundation in any subject,' Gupta said. Gupta comes from an academically strong family. His father, Deepak Gupta, is a Sub-Divisional Engineer at BSNL in Kota, and his mother, Shruti Agrawal, is a Professor of Home Science at JDB College in Kota. Education, discipline, and balance have always been part of the household ethos. In a striking generational coincidence, Gupta revealed that his father secured 48th rank in the Rajasthan Pre-Engineering Test in 1994, just missing the top rank by some marks.

He performed under far tougher conditions. I had the privilege of resources and a support system—his journey motivated me to go even further,' said Gupta. He prepared at Allen Career Institute, Kota. He also highlighted how being from Kota—the epicentre of India's coaching industry—played a pivotal role. 'Seeing thousands of students come here from across the country, staying away from families and comfort, pushed me to never take my situation for granted. My mum often reminded me that staying at home, eating home-cooked food, and having my parents around gave me an advantage many didn't have,' he added.
