Hi, I have cleared NEET in General category, as I didn't had cast certificate while filling the form. I have cast certificate now and would like to benefit of cast certificate. Is it possible to use the same while doing state councelling? Please suggest

In most cases, you likely wouldn't be able to use your caste certificate for reservation benefits during state counselling if you didn't indicate your category while filling the NEET application form.

State counselling for medical colleges considers category-wise reservation policies. To be eligible for reservation benefits, you need to declare your category (e.g., SC, ST, OBC) during the NEET application process.

While appearing for NEET itself might not require a caste certificate, claiming reservation benefits during state counselling typically necessitates a valid caste certificate issued by a competent authority.

A small possibility exists that some states might have provisions for candidates who missed indicating their category during NEET application. It's crucial to check the specific counselling brochure or website of your state counselling authority for any such exceptions.

Thoroughly research the counselling brochure or website of your state counselling authority. Look for any sections mentioning "category correction" or "reservation benefits for missed category selection during NEET application."

If the state counselling rules offer a window for rectification, contact the counselling authority through their helpline or email address. Explain your situation and inquire about the process for claiming reservation benefits despite missing the initial category selection.

If there is no provision for rectification in your state, you compete for a seat in the General category during state counselling. Scoring high marks becomes even more crucial in this scenario.
