How to use the Edit option
The notice gives this exact sequence for candidates updating their category details:
- Log in to the applicant account.
- Select Edit.
- Select Category (this step applies to OBC candidates only).
- Select the sub-category from the drop-down list.
- Enter the certificate number of the latest State NCL (Non-Creamy Layer) certificate.
- Enter the issuing authority.
- Enter the date of issuance of the certificate.
- Preview the entry.
- Save.
Added context, not part of the official notice: candidates may find it faster to keep their latest State NCL certificate open beside them before starting, since the certificate number, issuing authority, and issue date are all entered in the same sitting. Confirm with the official website.
The notice does not give a direct login link or the WBPSC website address — candidates should use the official login they already hold for the relevant examination.
