Concept of electrons move in a circular path of fixed energy called orbits was put forward by Bohr and not derived from Rutherford's scattering experiment.
Out of a large number of circular orbits theoretically possible around the nucleus, the electron revolve only in those orbits which have a tired value of energy. Hence these orbits are called energy level or stationary states.
