Dear candidate ,
Since you completed both Class X and XII in Maharashtra, even without originally selecting " domicile " , you can claim Type A Maharashtra State candidature during MHT - CET CAP . This category applies when your qualifying exam was taken in Maharashtra, and you are domiciled in the state - meeting both criteria ( XII in Maharashtra and domicile certificate) . Even if you initially selected " open " , you can change your category to SEBC or corresponding state type at CAP registration , and thereafter , you will be eligible under the SEBC reservation in engineering admissions .

hi,

Since you completed your 12th from Maharashtra, you will mostly be eligible for the Maharashtra state quota in colleges. Just living in Madhya Pradesh doesn’t usually make you eligible for the MP state quota unless you have an official domicile certificate from MP.

So, without MP domicile, you can apply under Maharashtra’s quota. If you have MP domicile, then you might be able to apply under MP quota too.
