Hello,

The OBC category has now been divided into further two division :-

1. OBC
2. OBC-NCL

The Central OBC certificate is only valid at the central level if it has been issued by the central government and it is for the NORMAL OBC CATEGORY, i.e the people belonging to this category doesn't have reservation benefits and are treated the same as the general category whereas the OBC-NC certificate is for the people who belong to the Non Creamy Layer of the OBC CATEGORY ,i.e people with annual income less than 4.5 lakh and have reservations in the Government jobs as well as in the competitive examination.

Hoping you understood the difference.

Thankyou.
