Hello Aspirant,

Yes, you can transition to EWS category from OBC in NEET state counselling as long as you have a current and authentic EWS certificate for that year at the time of counselling. However, you also need to follow the below things:

  • Your EWS certificate is valid for the current financial year and issued by the competent authority.
  • The counselling authority accepts changes in category when verifying the documents.

Rules change from state to state, so make sure you check your state counselling guidelines for specific information.
