Hello Sarthak,

Yes, you can update your category during the UPTEC/UPCET (UPTAC) counselling, but only if you have a valid OBC (NCL) certificate of Uttar Pradesh .

• The category you filled in JEE Main does not affect your UPTAC counselling.

• UPTAC uses the category mentioned during counselling , not the JEE form.

• If you belong to OBC (NCL) category in Uttar Pradesh and you have a valid UP-state OBC certificate , then you can choose OBC while registering for UPTAC counselling.

• Your OBC certificate must be issued by UP authorities and must be valid for the current admission year .

So yes, you can select OBC in UPTAC counselling even if you selected General in JEE Main, as long as you have the proper certificate.

If your certificate is not ready, get it issued as soon as possible because you will need to upload it during counselling.

Hope it helps !
