Your son shall not be eligible for since your income is above 8 lakh as prescribed under notification.
See, there is a provision for non creamy layer subject to the income of the parents.
If salary is more than 6 lacs of the father then he would not be able to avail the same.
There is much to cheer about for OBC employees of private sector and autonomous bodies/universities over Mandal reservations. The National Commission for Backward Classes (NCBC) has recommended a much higher "creamy layer" bar for non-Group A/B salaried persons in the private sector, statutory bodies, autonomous bodies and universities.
The "creamy layer" is about a ceiling on annual family income, beyond which a person is declared ineligible for reservations.
While the NCBC has recommended the annual income ceiling to be fixed at Rs 15 lakh, it has created this separate category for which the income test would be applied only on the amount remaining after deducting Rs 15 lakh from the gross salary of both parents.
Say, if the spouses earn Rs 20 lakh, the income considered for quota eligibility would be Rs 5 lakh. As the remainder sum is less than the income ceiling of Rs 15 lakh, their children would be eligible for quotas. Thus, in effect, only children of those families with annual income of more than Rs 30 lakh would be barred from availing quotas.
