Hello Dear Candidate,
You will have to immediately contact the authorities that issued your OBC-NCL certificate and request a correction. The process can can take up to 7 to 30 days.
Since, you cannot correct your personal details through online application correction window of CAT, you will have to inform the CAT Examination authority directly about the situation.
In case if the error is not corrected on time, you will not be eligible for reservation benefits, and will be considered under general category.
Thank You.

Hey! With a NEET score of 344 in the ST category, it is highly unlikely to get admission in any government BDS college in Delhi through the All India Quota. The cutoff for government BDS seats in Delhi usually falls around 400–450 for ST category, so your score is below that range.
You can consider private dental colleges, state quota seats in other states, or reattempt NEET next year to improve your chances.
Hello dear candidate,

Hey! With an All India Rank (AIR) of 302,821 in NEET and belonging to the BCE category, it is highly unlikely to get a BDS seat in Telangana under the state quota, as the closing ranks for BCE are usually below 50,000. You may consider applying to private colleges under management quota or explore BDS seats in other states, but the chances remain very limited with this rank.
