Hello,
I dont that you need to change the category, since you are a obc candidate and you have valid certificate too you need not change it.
And more over the income you entered is only for further scholarship purpose not for the reservation.
So I reccomend not to change the category.
For any further queries you can ask me.

I selected OBC-NCL option as there were only two options in dropdown list OBC-NCL and OBC-PWD. And therefore I mentioned my family income as 12 lac which was far more than NCL category of 6 lac. Now If I selected the same option during April 2019 form filling what will happen at the time of JoSAA councelling. Will they treat me as General category. And what will happen if I selected GENERAL category option while filling Apr 2019 exam form.
