as your mother after her marriage also falls under the OBC category and you being the child will have the caste of your father and not mother. You will have to opt for OBC category in filling it for all your educational purpose as well as jobs.

Venerated Sir,
As per the law of India, caste of family will be considered on the basis of male person. In your case after the marriage it might be presumed that caste of the father will be considered your caste because your father is the guardian and your mother are living in the family of your father. In such a case it will better for you to use Inc caste.
