Hello there,

If you belong to OBC-NCL (Other Backward Classes - Non-Creamy Layer) but mistakenly selected OBC (without NCL) during the application process and uploaded an OBC community certificate, it could cause issues during the verification process, especially when you reach the admission stage.

Here's what you can do:

1. Check for Correction Windows : If the application allows corrections, make sure to update your category to OBC-NCL instead of just OBC.
   
   

2. Clarification During Admission : At the time of document verification or counseling, you can clarify the situation. Make sure to submit the correct OBC-NCL certificate if required, and they should accept it.
   
   

3. Impact on Cutoffs : OBC-NCL candidates often have a lower cutoff compared to general OBC candidates, so misrepresenting your category could lead to problems when comparing your rank with the cutoff. It's essential to ensure that the correct category is reflected to avoid complications later on.

Make sure you take the necessary steps to rectify this mistake before the admission process starts.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, then feel free to share your questions with us, we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.
