Hello,
Yes, he/she is absolutely eligible to appear for NEET. As NEET is Science based exam atleast 50 percent marks are mandatory in all Science subjects, Physics, Chemistry, Biology. Let me give you more details regarding this, here's the minimum percentage required (aggregate) in PCB subjects as per the caste or category of the aspirant,
General or Unreserved- Minimum 50 percent
OBC/SC/ST- Minimum 40 percent
PWD or PH- (General PH aspirants- Minimum 45 percent and OBC/SC/ST PH aspirants- Minimum 40 percent)
So if you belong to OBC/SC/ST, you don't even need to score 50 percent.
All the best.
