Hello


No, there's no income bar / limit for SC reservation.


This is because,

Reservation of Sc, is completely  on the basis pf your caste.


But yes,

For obc candidates  , reservation further depends on income as reservation is only for obc ncl.

  • Creamy layer OBC candidates are those whose parents annual income is more than 8 lakhs  per annum and they are not eligible for reservation


  • obc ncl i. e Obc non creamy layer are those candidates whose parents annual income is less than 8 lakh per annum and they are eligible for reservation


To help you further,

If I tell you about qualifying cut off marks then

This is very difficult to predict neet 2021 cut off as cut off marks keeps changing every year  depending upon various factors like :-

----------) number of students that appeared in the exam,

----------) kind of marks obtained by them ,

----------) toughness  level of the examination etc.

But yes,

Cut off marks will be more or less similar to previous years and when we go through past year qualifying cut off trends then last 3 years qualifying cut off data is given below for reference :-


.                 .  Year wise cut off marks

Category     2020             2019          2018


General   720-147        701-134      691-119


UR-PH     146-129         133-120      118-107


Obc/sc/st  146-113     133-107       118 - 96


From above, it can be seen that in neet 2020 , an sc category student required at least 113 marks to qualify neet  .    110 - 120 marks marks is expected least marks to qualify neet 2021 for sc category.   You can check the same at
