Hi,

The seat allotment for OBC-NCL student is done in following way:

  • First the Open Category seat is considered.
  • If student has rank above Open Category seat closing rank, then that student will get seat.
  • If student didn't have enough rank for Open seat then he/she would be considered for OBC-NCL seat.
  • If he/she has ranking above closing rank of OBC-NCL then the seat is allocated to him/her.

Apart from this various other factors are also considered while seat allotment like Gender, Home state quota etc.

So , A OBC-NCL student is eligible for both Open and OBC reserved seats.

I hope this will answer your query.
