1) you have to get an application form which you have to fill with complete details and personal information.

2) You need the certificate for birth or any school certificate which proofs your age.

3) You need 2 photos and one of them should be attested through any of central or state government gazetted officer. You must have to attach both of photos on the application form before going to submit it in department to get the obc caste certificate in Delhi.

4) After both of these you also need the address proof on which the Ration Card copy can be used. If you are not having the card then you also can use any other document to as the Proof of Residence on which the complete address should be mentioned like property tax receipt, house tax, electricity bill, phone bill etc.

5) If you are having the caste certificate of his / her father or brother then have to attach the copy of that because it will make easy the verification process and you can get your O.B.C. Certificate through the easy process.

The OBC certificate itself is given by an authority hence there is no need for getting it attested, however if you would like to get a photo copy carried with yo then you may get it attested.

The documents defining your father's community which comes under the list of OBC is a vital document to be attached with yor application for seeking OBC certificate.

My main concern is Attestation by Gazetted. Some typist near SDM office told me that attestation required in your case. Is that really needed?

Attestation for a original document/certificate is not required, you are talking about the attestation for the affidavit by a notary public, check it.
