Hello

For NEET AIQ counseling , the OBC certificate must be from the state where the caste is recognized as OBC.

Since JAT is OBC in Rajasthan and at the central level but not in Maharashtra, you should get a Central OBC-NCL certificate from Rajasthan authorities.

However, having a Maharashtra domicile might create complications. Confirm with NEET/NTA authorities if this setup is valid for central quota counseling.

Hope this gives you the clarity you need.

For NEET counselling, you can use a central OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) certificate to claim OBC benefits under the All India Quota (AIQ) seats; for state quota seats, you would need a state-issued OBC certificate depending on the specific state regulations.

To convert a Maharashtra state OBC certificate to a central OBC certificate, you need to apply to the designated authority in your district with your existing state OBC certificate, along with necessary supporting documents, and request a "Central OBC Certificate" specifying that you belong to a centrally listed OBC category i.e JAT this process usually involves submitting an application form and undergoing verification by the relevant government official.

Hello Rahul,

Since you have Maharashtra domicile , the Maharashtra authorities will not issue a Central OBC certificate because Jat is not recognized as OBC in Maharashtra.

However, you can get a Central OBC certificate from Rajasthan , where Jats are under the OBC category. This certificate will be valid for Central Government quota admissions , including All India Quota (AIQ) counselling in NEET .

Key Points:

1. State OBC and Central OBC are different: Since Jats are not OBC in Maharashtra, you cannot get a Maharashtra OBC certificate.
   
   
2. Central OBC certificate from Rajasthan is valid for AIQ: As long as the caste is listed under the Central OBC list, you can use it for NEET AIQ counselling.
   
   
3. For Maharashtra State Quota, you will be treated as General: Since Maharashtra does not recognize Jats as OBC, you cannot claim OBC benefits in state quota seats.

You should apply for a Central OBC-NCL (Non-Creamy Layer) certificate from Rajasthan and use it for NEET AIQ counselling .

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

Hello,

For NEET MDS , here's the clarification regarding your category:

1. Central List of OBC :  Your caste appears under OBC, but this is based on the central government's classification.

2. Kerala Government List : In Kerala's list, you fall under the OEC-SC category, which is specific to the state's classification.

3. NEET MDS Application :

   • Since NEET is a central-level exam, the classification that matters is based on the central government’s policies.
   • If you are applying for the central quota, you should select the OBC category as per the central list, as the state’s OEC-SC classification may not apply for NEET MDS.
   • If applying for state quota in Kerala, refer to Kerala's guidelines, which may accept your OEC-SC status.

4. Consult Kerala Authorities : It's advisable to confirm with the Kerala State authorities or the NEET MDS helpdesk to ensure accurate selection based on the state and central quota policies.

When using a college predictor while belonging to the EWS category, you should always select "All India EWS ranking" instead of "All India ranking" as your ranking will be considered only within the EWS category for college predictions, giving you a more accurate result based on your reservation benefit.

Selecting the correct category (EWS) in the college predictor ensures the most accurate prediction of which colleges you are likely to get admission to based on your EWS reservation.
