Hello,
If you have entered the wrong annual income but belong to the OBC NCL category and have a valid certificate, it should not cause a problem during verification, as long as your certificate supports your category and income criteria.
Make sure:
Your OBC NCL certificate is valid and matches the name on your application.
You carry the correct income details during document verification. You may have to explain or correct the income information at that stage.
The important thing is to be honest and provide supporting documents during verification. Mistakes in the application can usually be corrected at the time of document check if you have proof.

So, it depends on your career goals. If you plan for research or teaching, you should try to clear it.
