Saurabh, you haven't mentioned your Category. This serial/entry/certificate number in the CAT registration form is for OBC Category students. Please visit http://www.ncbc.nic.in/User_Pane... (http://www.ncbc.nic.in/User_Panel/CentralListStateView.aspx) Click on your State and search for your Caste using Ctrl+F. Under the entry column, see the number corresponding to your Caste and enter that in the CAT application form. For example, lets say your Category number is 20, then you have to mention 20 as your Caste number in the Column.

ok, I clicked on this link.
Searched category name : Mallah. Mine is under (SC). However, under the link you've given, it says mallah(excl those come under SC). What does that mean. Also, the link given on CAT form also has Mallah under Delhi category.?
There the number is 25. Under the above mentioned link it is 18. But 18 also says (excluding those in SC). Could you please clarify this. Thanks much.!

This is for those Candidates who belong to Mallah Community but do not fall under SC Category. This is the Central OBC list that we are looking at.
