Hello,
No, you cannot select the NC-OBC (Non-Creamy Layer Other Backward Classes) section in the CAT registration form if you belong to the RBA (Reserved Backward Area) category, even if your family income is less than Rs. 8 lakhs.
The NC-OBC category in the CAT registration form is specifically for candidates who belong to the Non-Creamy Layer of the Other Backward Classes (OBC) as per the central government’s list of OBCs. The RBA category is a separate category applicable mainly in states like Jammu & Kashmir, and it does not fall under the central OBC category.
If you belong to the RBA category, you should select the appropriate category you qualify for in the CAT registration form (General, SC, ST, EWS, or any other applicable category based on state or central government recognition).
Hope it helps !
