Extra fee is charged in the cases where you have registered yourself as SC/ST/PwD candidate and paid application fee of Rs. 325/- then if you change your category to either General/EWS/OBC-NCL then you have to pay Rs. 325/- extra.

Hi

No, you don't need to pay fee if you change your category from ews to  general category.

This is because,

The charge to be paid during correction is equal to the difference in the the application fee for the two categories.

For example,

application fee for SC category is rupees 325 while for general category the application fee is 650 so in the case if one changes his category from SC to general category then in that case you will have to pay rupees 650 -325 = 325.

But you don't need to pay any charge as the application fee for both general and e w s category is 650 Rupees .

Correction Window for jee main February session will be opened on 19th January  2021 and correction can be made using correction window till 21st january 2021 .

Once the correction window gets opened, you need to visit the official page of JEE Mains i. e jeemain  . nta  . nic  . in  and login using your registration number and password and then you will be able to rectify your mistakes

But yes , while using the correction window you should make sure that all your details are correct because once you use the correction window , you won't get another chance to use the correction window again as it is a single time facility. So, do check all the details twice.
