HEY,
If you want to avail the state quota, then your category certificates should be signed by the respective state SDO. Otherwise it is fine if you have sc category certificate of one particular state. You are eligible to appear in josaa counselling and the exam if your certificate is correct and is in the same order as asked. For more details you can visit the link.

Thank you very much! If by chance they dont accept my certificate, will they give me time to correct my certificate? Or straight away reject it?
