Yes, you can apply for JEE Advanced 2025 under the OBC-NCL category .
The OBC-NCL certificate must be issued after April 1, 2024 , and your certificate (dated April 3, 2025) is valid.
Even if you applied for JEE Mains as General , you can register as OBC-NCL for JEE Advanced.
During JEE Advanced registration, upload your OBC-NCL certificate in the prescribed format.
Ensure your certificate format and eligibility match the official JEE Advanced guidelines.

You're eligible to apply under OBC-NCL for JEE Advanced 2025.
