Hello there Indra Sai,


Underneath I've recorded the classification savvy reservation rate given in JEE Advanced assessment 2021 :


General Economically Weaker Section (GEN-EWS) - 10%


Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) - 27%


Planned Caste (SC) - 15%


Planned Tribe (ST) - 7.5


I trust this data makes a difference!!!
