Hello Aspirant,
Economically Weaker Section (EWS) in India is a subcategory of people belonging to the General Category having an annual family income less than 8 lakhs and who absolutely do not belong to any category such as SC/ST/OBC/MBC(Tamil Nadu). If a candidate who doesn't fall under castes recognized as SC/ST/OBC by the Govt. of India & his/her annual family income is below the prescribed limit of 8 lakhs by Government of India (or as prescribed by state govt in the respective states), then he/she will be recognized as EWS category.
People belonging to Economically Weaker Section since 1 February 2019 now get 10% reservation in education (supernumerary seats created for EWS category) and government jobs of India (vartical reservations) similarly like OBC, SC, ST.
Thus, there is a 10% reservation of EWS category students in JEE Mains/JEE Advanced. They can get the benefit of reservation through EWS seats, if they are unable to get admission through the General/Open Category( AIR).
Hope this information was helpful to you. You may ask if you have any further doubts.
All the best!!
