Dear student,

**Central Government issued Caste Certificate is different from State Government issued Caste Certificate, it is because there are different Caste Categories in different States. Only Castes which are listed in Central are only given Caste Certificate through it is in State list and it is not in Central list then you cannot get Central issued Caste Certificate.

**For National level exams or Central level jobs, etc Central issued Caste Certificate is must. You cannot upload State issued Caste Certificate in place of Central issued Caste Certificate. For most of the State level entrance exams, State Government jobs, etc Central issued Caste Certificate is valid in most of the States.

**As you are talking about IIT JAM, it is a National level entrance exam which requires Central issued Caste Certificate. You are not supposed to submit State issued Caste Certificate.

**Also the Caste Category must be Central issued and it must be for the year 2022 to 2023 which is issued as per the guidelines of IIT Jam.

I hope this information was helpful to you.

Good Luck!!

Cut off means the minimum marks required for a student in order to cross the threshold of passing the examination. Now the score you are mentioning about the Economics paper in IIT JAM is good score and its good for getting newer IIT's if you are an UNRESERVED Student. The rank you can expect may lie in between 340-600. The variation is dependent on the type of students attempted, but this is the past year trend wise analysis.
