Dear Sir, There is no procedure to change your caste from SC to OBC. It is sufficient to mention in all school records of your children that they belongs to OBC. Thus, they will be recognised as children belonging to OBC category only. In the meanwhile you should not claim any reservation under SC Category.

Inter-caste marriage*: Legally recognized, and couples can choose to identify with either or neither caste. - yes you can change your castr of wife as per the Marriage Act Caste certificate*: Individuals may apply for a new certificate reflecting their spouse's caste, but this process varies by state and circumstances.
