Hello student,
The cutoff for general caterogy and general with ews will be the same. The difference comes only during the counselling.General Ews category are given bit more priority than general category usually in counselling rounds.

Dear Student

The cut-off of general category ews section is lower than the cut-off of general section as it gives 10% reservation for the poor sections of  upper caste category.
