2. Keep the full signature centred inside the 140 x 60 px frame.
3. Differs from RRB NTPC CEN 05/2024, which requires 10-40 KiB for this same 140 x 60 px box - do not reuse NTPC's KB range for Group D.
4. This is not the live signature (with Left Thumb Impression) that the candidate re-writes on the printed e-Call letter in front of the invigilator at the CBT venue; that on-site step cannot be prepared here.

How to prepare

1. Use this only if requesting the free sleeper-class rail-travel pass as an SC/ST candidate; it is not a universal upload for every Group D applicant.
2. Differs from RRB NTPC CEN 05/2024, which requires this same certificate as a JPG/JPEG scan (50-100 KiB), not a PDF - do not reuse NTPC's format for Group D.
3. No OBC-NCL/EWS/PwBD/CCAA certificate upload is listed among this CEN's application-stage 'ONLINE Mandatory Scanned Documents'; those are produced physically at Document Verification.
