Hello,
Eligibility for the EWS (Economically Weaker Section)** certificate is based on the total household income and other criteria. If your family's total gross annual income is below 8 lakhs, including all sources (your income, parents, and siblings), you are eligible. Since your income is below 5 lakhs but your sibling earns above 8 lakhs, eligibility depends on whether their income is included in your family’s combined total. Check local guidelines for clarity.
Hope this helps you,
Thank you
