Hello,
Your exam result will still be generated after you take the IIT JAM exam .
But if you do not submit a valid EWS certificate , then:
Your EWS category benefit will be cancelled .
Your result may be treated as General category .
At the admission stage , your candidature under EWS can be rejected if the new certificate is not provided.
In some cases, the JAM office says the result will not be shown under EWS status , not that the exam result itself will disappear.
So please note:
Old EWS certificate is not accepted if it is not for the required financial year.
You must submit a new, valid EWS certificate within the given deadline to keep EWS benefits.
If possible, try to get written confirmation (email) from the JAM office to avoid confusion later.
Hope it helps !
