Hi aspirant,

Jossa gives benifits to candidates if they hold EWS certificates but giving relaxation is not in their hand. Following below are the criteria that are needed to be fulfilled in order to get EWS certificate:

  • The applicant must belong to general category.
  • The family income must be equal to or less than 8 lacs per annum.
  • The agricultural land must not be more than 5 acres.
  • The residential home should be within 1000 sq ft which is 100 sq yards for some municipalities.

Hope it helps!

Hello Vikas,

Candidates who does not come under SC or ST or BC Category and has Gross Family income below Rs. 8 Lakhs per annum comes under EWS Category.

They must belong to General Category.

To apply for EWS Category candidates must not own Agriculture land not more than 5 acres.

Also, their residential flat must not be more than 1,000 square feets and in case of Municipality, not more than 100 yards residential plot.

If you are eligible then you can apply for EWS Certificate. Candidates with EWS Certificate can avail 10 percentage of benefits of the Certificate in Government jobs and for higher education.

May this information will help you.

Best of Luck!!
