Hello Aspirant,

If the candidates income is less that Rs. 6.0 lakhs per year, you become automatically eligible for SNQ quota. Of course, the number of eligible candidate per candidate is limited to 5 percent of the total available seats.

The seats are alloted under the SNQ purely based on the merit lists and ranks.

The candidates have to make sure that they produce an income certificate issued by a Jurisdictional Tahasildar or the Block Education Officer and submit it at the document verification stage of the examination.

Income Certificate (For Supernumerary quota seats only) (Income limit Rs.6,00,000/-) :-All candidates including General Merit candidates are eligible for Supernumerary quota seats. The eligibility for supernumerary quota seats is given at the following pages. The candidates who claim seat under Supernumerary Quota will have to obtain an income certificate from the concerned Tahasildar.

During document verification, you will be notified whether you are eligible for getting benefits of SNQ quota or not. It will be mentioned in the printout. You cannot apply it manually. And please make a note. You will only be notified whether you are eligible or not depending on the annual income of your family and the category you belong to. But the K-CET algorithm decides during seat allotment whether you are eligible for SNQ quota or not. It will compare all the candidates and candidates having least income and belonging to backward classes will be rewarded with SNQ quota seat first..

Hope it helps..All the best!!!
