Hello, Yes , based on the details you've provided, you can apply for an EWS certificate.

The reason is that for an unmarried person, the income of their adult siblings (who are 18 years of age or older) is not included when calculating the "family income" for an EWS certificate.

As long as your parents' gross annual income is below the 8 lakh threshold and your family's assets are within the prescribed limits (e.g., less than 5 acres of agricultural land, etc.), you are eligible to apply.
