cat from info

Asked by Anonymous on 2026-09-05 in General MBA Doubts

I have an OBC certificate but it does not clearly state that it is a Non Creamy Layer certificate and the certificate is from 2022

I have already applied for a new OBC Non Creamy Layer certificate but it has not arrived yet because there are some issues with the certificate

My existing OBC certificate does however contain a declaration stating that I do not belong to the Creamy Layer as specified under Column 3 of the Schedule of the Government of India Department of Personnel and Training

Can I submit my existing OBC certificate along with the declaration available on the CAT website and the application number for the new certificate or should I fill out the form as general

if your new certificate is on the way and you are sure that it will come then you should make a pdf by combining your old certificate plus nc-obc undertaking form plus a proof that you have applied for a new certificate and submit that pdf while filling CAT registration form and apply as a Nc obc not general

If your central OBC-NCL or EWS certificate is currently under process, download the official CAT Undertaking Form from the CAT portal, fill and sign it, and merge it into a single PDF along with your application acknowledgment receipt or older certificate to upload under the category document field. Ensure the final certificate is issued in the Central Government format before the interview stage.
