Hello
You selected NCL-OBC in the CAT form, so colleges will see you as an OBC candidate for shortlisting.
However, for final admission, they will ask for a valid OBC-NCL certificate.
Uploading a general community certificate does not fully prove OBC-NCL status.
If you can submit the correct OBC-NCL certificate
