Dear Aspirant,

If you are applying for any university which is taking admissions through National level test, then they'll only consider the national(Central) OBC certificate for eligible OBC candidates. It does not matter if the university is in your state or not.

So if you are applying for such test like JEE, GATE, then make sure you have a national OBC certificate.

Hope this helps. Thank you.
