Yes, you are eligible for the Jharkhand state quota in NEET as domicile is the primary criterion, not where you completed your schooling. Since you hold a Jharkhand domicile and completed Class 10 there, you can claim the state quota during the counseling process, provided you provide valid domicile proof. The "State of Eligibility" in your NEET admit card indicates where you completed Class 12 and does not affect your domicile-based quota. Ensure you have your Jharkhand domicile certificate ready during counseling to avoid any confusion. Contact the counseling authority for clarification if needed.

Hello Ranveer,

Yes, you are eligible for Jharkhand state quota in NEET because domicile is the primary criterion for state quota eligibility, not where you completed your 11th and 12th grades. Here's how it works:

1. Domicile vs. NEET Eligibility State: The "State of Eligibility" mentioned in the NEET admit card is for the All India Quota (AIQ) seat allocation and does not affect state quota eligibility. Your state domicile determines your eligibility for the 85% state quota seats.
   
   

2. State Quota in Jharkhand: Since you hold a Jharkhand domicile and passed your 10th grade from the state (an essential requirement for most state quota policies), you are eligible to apply under the Jharkhand state quota for NEET counseling.
   
   

3. What to Do: During the state counseling registration for Jharkhand, ensure you submit your domicile certificate and 10th-grade mark sheet issued in Jharkhand as proof of eligibility.

If you're still unsure, confirm with the Jharkhand Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (JCECEB) or refer to their official counseling guidelines.
