Hello,
Since you belong to BC category as per your OG certificate but are a converted Christian from Scheduled Caste (serial 16A), you cannot claim SC reservation .
For JEE, reservation for OBC/BC is generally not available to converted Christians , and you can only appear under the General or General-EWS category (if your family income qualifies for EWS).
Most central scholarships for SC/OBC also do not apply to converted Christians, though some state governments provide special BC-Christian scholarships depending on the state.
Hope it helps !
