I belong to General category under central government but OBC category under state government. What should I fill in my JEE Mains form?

<p>Your JEE Mains registration form must show General for category selection because the National Testing Agency (NTA) administers this Central Government-run national-level examination. The NTA uses Central Government reservation guidelines which exclude state-level OBC categorizations from eligibility. As per the Central Government's guidelines, OBC category is further divided into two sub-categories: OBC-NCL (Non-Creamy Layer) and OBC-CL (Creamy Layer). The category under which you fall within the Central Government structure makes reservation benefits unavailable to you. Choose General when completing the category choice box.</p>

<p>You should select the Central Government-approved category for the JEE Mains form, which in your case is the General category (also called the Unreserved category).<br>This is due to the fact that the JEE Mains exam is administered at the national level by the Central Government-affiliated National Testing Agency (NTA). The Central Government's rules on reserves and classifications are adhered to by the NTA.<br>For the purposes of JEE Mains, you will be categorised as General even if you are an OBC according to the state government.<br>To ensure accuracy and prevent any inconsistencies, thoroughly read the NTA's instructions and guidelines before completing your JEE Mains form.</p>
