Hello,

Don't worry even if you give the wrong birthplace address in the JEE Main application, because the NTA provides the correction window. Still, it can affect the domicile/state quota. So, you must correct these mistakes in the correction window.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello,
If you entered the wrong birthplace or district in your JEE Mains application, it usually does not affect your eligibility or exam process. The main verifications are done using your name, date of birth, school details, and official identification documents.

If the correction window is open, it is recommended to update the birthplace and district to match your official records. If the correction window does not allow changes, it generally does not cause any problem as long as all other details are correct and consistent with your official documents.
Hope this helps you.

HELLO,

See entering the wrong birthplace and district in your JEE mains application will not affect your exam , rank and eligibility cause these details will not be used for scoring or verification during admissions.

But if the correction window is open  then you can update it to avoid further confusion and if it is already closed then don't worry you can explain the mistake during counselling or document verification. If Your rest of information is accurate then this error will generally not cause any major issues but yes during state level counselling you may need a Domicile certificate to claim a home state quota.

Hope this will help you!
