I have an OBC NCL certificate but my salary has increased this yearband my average income for 3 years has exceeded 8 lakh/ annum.my don is appearing for JEE under OBC category ? Do you think he will face issues with eligibility later?
Hi Avanish,
Yes, there can be an issue regarding the OBC (NCL) eligibility. As per the guidelines, to qualify for the OBC-NCL category, the family's annual income should be below RS 8 lakh per year. If your average income for the past three years exceeds RS 8 lakh, your family may fall into the "upper layer or creamy layer" category, which would not allow your son from applying under the OBC-NCL category.
However, if your salary increase is recent and the average of the past three years still remains under Rs. 8 lakh, then he might still be eligible for the OBC-NCL benefits. It is crucial to verify the exact average income and consult the latest government notifications or a legal expert for confirmation on this matter.
THANK YOU!
