Hello Hitesh
-
A state EWS certificate is usually not valid for JEE Advanced or JoSAA counselling.
-
You’ll need an EWS certificate in the central government format, as required by IITs.
-
Even if issued by your local authority, it must clearly mention it’s as per Govt. of India norms.
-
You can visit your tahsildar/revenue office and request it in the “central format for JEE.”
-
Make sure the issue date is after April 1, 2025, for it to be valid in 2026 counselling.
-
You don’t need it at the time of JEE Main, only during Advanced registration and JoSAA.
You still have enough time to get it updated, so no stress, just don’t delay it too long.
