Hello,
As you have wrongly entered your category in the application form for JEE Mains as OBC category but you are originally from general category, then you will be treated as general category as you wont be able to produce a caste certificate.
So at the time of counseling, you will be treated as general category and your score must cross the cutoff marks for general category. If you are qualified, then only you will be eligible for admissions into NITs IIITs and GFTIs through JOSAA counseling.

Hope it helps
