WBPSC OBC Sub-Category/UR Edit Window Notice

The West Bengal Public Service Commission (WBPSC) has issued a notice (No. 192/PSC(I), dated 2026-09-03) regarding an edit window for candidates who need to update their OBC Sub-Category or confirm their UR (Unreserved) Category details. This opportunity is meant for candidates applying for specific WBPSC examinations and who must ensure their category information is recorded correctly using the latest State Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) certificate.

The edit window is being opened in line with directives from the Backward Classes Welfare (B.C.W.) Department, Government of West Bengal. Candidates covered under the listed examinations should complete the category correction strictly within the applicable date range for their exam, as late updates will not be accepted.

This notice covers multiple major WBPSC examinations and provides separate, fixed edit window durations for each exam. The application correction process is available online through the WBPSC candidate portal, and the selection-related consequence of missing the deadline is clearly stated: if the candidate does not update within the stipulated window, their candidature will be treated as UR (Unreserved) automatically. The steps include logging in, opening the edit option, selecting the appropriate category and sub-category, entering certificate details, previewing, and saving the updated information.
