Failure to provide the OBC NCL (Non-Creamy Layer) category certificate while undergoing the GATE counseling may make you ineligible for all the reservation benefits pertaining to the OBC NCL category. This will imply that you might fall into the General category, thus reducing your chances of acquiring a seat in your favorite program, especially when highly competitive institutes are concerned. Failure to submit the certificate on time will also lead to disqualification or rejection of your application. You may lose an opportunity to get admission which is specifically reserved for OBC NCL candidates.
