Hello aspirant,
I hope that you are doing absolutely great.
With reference to your above mentioned query, i would like to tell you that you wouldn't be able to get reservation as OBC category because your OBC Certificate is not valid for JEE mains 2022 examination.
For a valid OBC Certificate, your OBC Certificate must be issued on or after 1st january, 2022 if you want to get reservation for JEE mains 2022. However, if you don't have the new certificate issued yet, you can apply a self-undertaking and could register yourself for JEE mains 2022. And after some days if your new OBC Certificate gets issued, then you can apply for the same.
I hope that that this will help.
