Hello Mayank,
As
per 7th pay commision recommendation the Non-creamy OBC certificate
validity is one financial year . This is how it is calcuated,
(a)
Every candidate seeking reservation in central government posts and
services as OBC candidate is required to submit a certificate confirming
his/her status as OBC and also produce Non-creamy layer status issued
by an authority mentioned in DOPT Office Memorandum
No.36012/22/93-Est(SCT) dated 15.11.1993.
(b)
The Non-creamy Layer Certificate would be applicable to OBC candidates
who are covered under Income/Wealth Test criterion. The income limit is
decided on the basis of income earned during three previous financial years
preceding the year of appointment. To illustrate, the validity of
non-creamy layer certificate issued during any month of the financial
year 2016-17 covering 3 preceding financial years viz. 2013-14, 2014-15
and 2015-16 be accepted by the concerned authorities for any
appointments or recruitments which would be valid during the period
April 2016 to March 2017 ( which is that particular financial year)
I would like to add some points:
(i)
If Non-creamy certificate required for getting appointed into State Gov
or Central Gov. both has different format and validity therefore one
need to apply different application for acquiring respective
certificate.
(ii) Generally the validity of NCL for Central Gov. is 1 year.
(iii) Whereas Validity of NCL for State Gov. is 3 years.
I hope this helps you,
All the best
