Hello Aspirant

There are reservations for both SC category students as well as defence category students.
The reservation for SC category is fixed and it will directly reflect in your rank card. You should have form D with you if you are applying for SC category reservation.
Also, you will have to produce caste certificate/caste income certificate issued by concerned Jurisdictional Tahsildar in accordance with Government Regulations.

Defence category has 10% reserved seats in all Engineering colleges.

There are 2 categories under defence quota:

Defence Special Category:
Son/Daughter of Defence personnel
Candidates need to possess a Defence Certificate.

Ex-Defence Category
Son/Daughter of ex-personnel of Defence services
Needs to possess Defence Certificate issued by Joint Director/Deputy Director.
