Is There any Quota for NRIs in JEE?

There is only 9 countries in the world that have their own JEE Exam centres including as Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, Maldives, Singapore, UAE and Ethiopia. NRIs from there will be allocated seats under a supernumerary category.

Moreover, the premier institutes of India has decided to allow 10% supernumerary quota for all foreign nationals.
