MH CET Law Reservation 2024 Policy for Social and Economic class

Backward class reservations for the MH CET Law Exam are only available to Maharashtra residents.

Among the social groups evaluated for reservation are SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and notified tribes. Around half of the seats are allocated to candidates from socioeconomic caste groups.

Candidates with caste certificates from states other than Maharashtra will be able to compete in the Open Category.

Some of the castes that fall under the SBC category used to be categorised under the other backward groups. Therefore, such an SBC applicant will be considered qualified for reservation in MH CET law in the previously specified backward class.

If any reserved seats are left following the merit list admission process, SBC applicants will be permitted entrance on a first-come, first-served basis to occupy the seat on a priority basis up to 2% of the total intake capacity.
