PSU and government employees are treated differently when it comes to including salary or not. Some candidates have been denied service in the past because their parents were in PSU and hence, wealth test was applied on them based on salary.

Nearly ever year. At least I know of it since 2009. The government has not done the grading in PSUs and after getting the NCL certificate from HoD in PSU, govt has come up with its own findings and denied NCL benefits.


However, in that case you are treated as a general candidate , and not debarred from misrepresentation of facts or anything.

query related to OBC criteria for NCL..... 

There is clause that class C government employees can fall under Non creamy layer even if they have salary more than prescribed limit. 

Does any selected candidate face any issue???

NC OBC for PSU employee

My community fall into the category of OBC central list. My father joined Food cooperation of India as Grade C employee but later promoted to grade A officer after 40 years, just few years before his retirement. Am I eligible for OBC- reservation?

Hi, can anyone help me with this:

How are attempts calculated by UPSC if a person changes their category from unreserved in first attempt to OBC-NCL in subsequent?

Is this practice allowed? Will UPSC keep a record of the category chosen in first attempt , and that would be used to calculate number of remaining attempts?

And how are the marks considered then?
