No, you will not be eligible for an OBC Non-Creamy Layer certificate if your father’s income is more than ₹8 lakh per year. Under the rules issued by Government of India for OBC reservation, a person falls in the Creamy Layer if the annual family income exceeds ₹8 lakh. Such candidates cannot obtain the Non-Creamy Layer certificate for reservation benefits. However, there is an important clarification: For government employees (like Army personnel), salary income is generally not counted under the ₹8 lakh income test in the same way as business/professional income. Instead, the rank/position of the parent is examined. Since your father is a Naib Subedar in the Indian Army, this rank usually falls under Group C / equivalent category, which normally does not come under the Creamy Layer. So practically: • If your father is Naib Subedar and not a commissioned officer, • And your family does not have high income from other sources like business, profession, or large property income, then you can generally apply for an OBC Non-Creamy Layer certificate. But the final decision will depend on the State authority issuing the certificate. What you should do: Apply for OBC NCL certificate at the Tehsil / SDM office. Provide father’s service certificate and income details. Authority will verify rank category and other income sources. If you want, tell me: • Your caste (OBC category name) • Which state you are applying from • Whether your father has other income sources I can tell you clearly whether you will get the Non-Creamy Layer certificate or not.

आप क्रीमी लेयर के लिए आवेदन नही कर सकते क्योंकि आपकी पहले से माताजी की इनकम 10 लाख के ऊपर है तो आप इसके लिए पत्र नहीं है धन्यवाद। अगर आपको अत्यधिक जानकारी चाहिए तो आप अपने तहसील परिसर में जाकर एक बार बात कर सकते हैं

Since your father is a Naib Subedar (Group C), you are generally eligible for the OBC Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) certificate. Under current rules for armed forces, eligibility is primarily determined by rank rather than annual salary, provided there is no significant income from other sources. For a detailed review and professional legal guidance, you can book a paid consultation with me, Advocate Sudesh.
