Hey! For KCET you cannot use a Tamil Nadu caste certificate. KCET counselling accepts only caste and income certificates issued by Karnataka authorities (like Tahsildar), in the proper Karnataka formats. Even if you belong to a reserved category in Tamil Nadu, that certificate won’t be valid here.

If you want to claim reservation in KCET, you will need to get a caste/income certificate from Karnataka as per their rules. Otherwise, you will be considered under the General category.

Hello dear student,

Only caste certificate issued in Karnataka are valid for ST/ SC/ OBC quota. yes, you can give your Tamil Nadu caste certificates for KCET, it'll not be considered for reservation.

So, with a Tamil Nadu caste certificate you will be considered as a general category student in KCET .
