India, June 4 -- While many students dream of making it to the IITs, few overcome the challenges Inderjeet faced along the way. Born to a poor family of an e-rickshaw driver father and a housewife mother, Inderjeet, who hails from Pathanwala, a small village in Rajasthan, has secured OBC NCL rank 1040 and CRL 4861 in JEE Advanced 2026.

The achievement is particularly significant given his family's modest background. With his father earning a livelihood by driving an e-rickshaw and having an annual income below 1 lakh rupees, access to resources and coaching opportunities was limited. Yet, Inderjeet remained focused on his goal, balancing rigorous preparation with the realities of economic hardship.
