Shubham Kumar: Strategy and Notes for UPSC(CSE)

Lot of queries in EWS

For EWS, few general points. I’m not an expert on this, kindly consult who has cleared with EWS for details

1) Family definition includes only your Parents and siblings below the age of 18

2) For land and residential plot:

Land - if the land doesn’t belong directly in the name of father or mother or any siblings below 18– one is eligible (if income criteria is fulfilled)

3) If the land papers is in name of Father/Mother and it is beyond the limit- one may not be eligible even if one has adult siblings. If the family is separate it is better to have land registered (legally: through deed) in the name of adult siblings.

4) lf the total income from your parents and you — is less than 8 lakhs, then your family should not be having land papers more than what is prescribed.

Anything in "Family" name is included. Until and unless "registered" in the name of someone outside this EWS family definition (including grandparents/adult siblings etc)

5) If the common house area (where more than one family is residing) is more than what is given as a limit- EWS would be eligible if the elder siblings and other families have gotten their share and it should be registered (legally through deed).

A special thanks to my friend and batchmate @Yo_Yo_Choti_Singh for sharing the details
