No, you cannot use your state OBC certificate for AKTU counselling if you applied for OBC NCL in your JEE Main application form.

During JEE Main application, you specifically selected "OBC NCL" which is a central government category. This category applies nationally and requires a central government issued OBC NCL certificate.

AKTU counselling considers the category mentioned in your JEE Main application form. Since you opted for OBC NCL, they likely won't accept a state OBC certificate.

While the chance is low, you can try contacting AKTU counselling authorities to explain the situation. Inquire if there's any possibility of considering your state OBC certificate given the specific circumstances.
