@newhere what all documents needed

ii)PersonaL IDcard
iii)Originals of documents mentioned

@RichaNarayan All your originals, they'll mostly check Xth and XIIth marksheets. And yes, ID proof is required.
SOP - good if you take it, but they have your application on their laptops anyway, so I guess its ok if you dont take it.
