DEAR

Both the categories are inter-linked as SEBC stands for socially and economically backward classes whereas OBC stands for other backward classes. However, both the terms are used inter-changeably and 27% of provision is applicable for both ones. ... Is the SEBC certificate the same as the OBC-NCL certificate.

52% of OBC people were counted to the Indian population in 1980 by B.P.Mandal committee report in V.P. Singh Sarkar.
In the Indian constitution, 27% reservation is given to OBC people who are socially and economically weak.

As per the Indian constitution, there are two main purposes to deliver the reservation.

  1. Development of SC (Scheduled Castes), ST ( Scheduled Castes), OBC (https://fullformstar.com/obc-sc-st-and-ews-full-form/) (Other Backward Classes), EWS (Economically Weaker sections)- under article 15(4), Article 15 (5), and Article 15 (6).
  2. Sufficient representation of any EWS (Economically weaker sections). – Under Article 16 (4) and Article 16 (6).


GOOD LUCK !!
