The Commissionerate of Revenue Administration (CRA) has instructed the District Collectors to duly sensitise authorities over issuing the Other Backward Classes (OBC) non-creamy layer certificate to eligible wards of employees serving in public sector undertakings (PSUs).
Earlier, wards of all employees serving in PSUs were excluded. With the fresh guidelines issued this month, the wards of employees of PSUs and State PSUs (who are not in Groups A and B) would be eligible to get OBC non-creamy layer certificates.
The communication was issued in the light of concerns over the difficulty in obtaining OBC certificates for the sons and daughters of employees in PSUs, as there was a lack of clarity over the income criteria.
