hi,

see in case,  an individual has been living in India for minimum 182 days in the previous financial year or has resided in India for  60 days in a particular year and has lived in India for a minimum of 365 days in the last four years is considered to be  a Resident of India. since  you have completed your 12th grade from Indian state you do not belongs to NRI quota. see In nri quota there is less number of candidates, so competition levels seems lower than other category seats, but fees structure for NRI quota is high compare to  any other category.

so I suggest you to apply as general category.

Thanks for the reply, I would like to know is there any official website from where I can get these details regarding the criteria of Resident of India as you have mentioned as this will help me in communicating with respective institutes while applying for the admission. Also can I apply for the admission under general category after mentioning that I am an OCI card holder? Thanks
