If you filled the UGC NET exam as an EWS candidate but qualified as an Assistant Professor by scoring above the general category cutoff, you will still be considered as an EWS candidate even though your score is higher than the general category cutoff; your category is determined by the category you applied under, not just your final score.

You may come under UR category but you need to produce your EWS certificate during document verification wherever you apply for any Assistant Professor job or any kind of Fellowship from any University you have enrolled for your Ph. D course.

The merit list is prepared for reservation category seperately and your name appears on it only not in the list of general category candidates.

Hope you get your answer!!
