Hello,

No, you should not give different income details in JEE Main and AKTU counselling forms. It’s important to be honest and consistent with the information you provide.

If you wrote 3 to 4 lakh for your parental income in JEE Main, you should not show less than 1 lakh in AKTU counselling . Giving wrong information can cause problems later, like cancellation of admission.

Hope it helps !

It’s not advisable to show different parental incomes in JEE Mains and AKTU counselling forms, especially if you already declared Rs3–4 lakh and “government service” for your father in JEE.

Here’s why:

1. Documents Must Match: During AKTU counselling, you’ll likely need to submit an income certificate. If it shows less than Rs1 lakh while you declared Rs3–4 lakh in JEE, it can raise questions or lead to disqualification.

2. Cross-Verification Risk: Government bodies may cross-verify data across exams. Mismatched info can create legal or admission issues.

3. Scholarship Implications: Low income may help you claim certain benefits, but misreporting can backfire.

What to do:

• If your actual income is below Rs1 lakh and you have a valid government income certificate, you can use that, but be ready to explain the earlier entry.

• Otherwise, stick with the correct income range across all forms.
