Hello


Yes, you are eligible for sc reservation.

This is because,

Reservation of sc/st is completely on the basis of caste and there's no income limit.

Income limit is there for only obc category.

  • Creamy layer OBC candidates are those whose parents annual income is more than 8 lakhs  per annum and they are not eligible for reservation


  • obc ncl i. e Obc non creamy layer are those candidates whose parents annual income is less than 8 lakh per annum and they are eligible for reservation

So, being from SC category you are eligible for reservation even if your family income is above it lakhs per annum.

To help you further,

If I tell you about qualifying cut off marks then,

Cut off marks will be more or less similar to previous years and when we go through past year qualifying cut off trends then last 3 years qualifying cut off data is given below for reference :-
