Children's cast out of intercast marriage

Normally child adopts the caste of the father.  It is to be verified whether mother's caste comes in the Karnataka list of SC 

yes Sir  , cast is "MAHAR" & as per karnataka also

THE CONSTITUTION (SCHEDULED CASTES) ORDER, 1950

Karnataka SC List        Sl no. (62).  Mahar, Taral, Dhegu Megu.

If the mother is SC the child can apply for caste certificate of SC

Child can't claim the benifit of mother's cast as he bears cast of father and being braught up in cast/community of father.

i agreed to mr. arvind , child can not apply for the benefits of caste of mother.

he be trated as general category as his father's caste
