You need to produce OBC Certificate at the time of counseling only. Make sure that while submission of your application form, you get the acknowledgement card signed or stamped

Reservation candidates need to upload the soft (scanned) copy of their category certificate during the online registration as per the rules of the Government of India. These candidates are admitted to seats reserved for them based on relaxed criteria.

Benefit of OBC (NCL), SC and ST reservation is given only to those classes or castes or tribes which are in the respective central list of corresponding states published by the Government of India.

JEE Reservation for Other Backward Class Non Creamy Layer (OBC NCL)

[sumit]

As you are asking I am telling there is no need to attach your OBC certificate at the time of form filling and sendig because IIT-JEE doesn't demand it but you will need this certificate during councelling otherwise you will be treated as general category students and you will not get any benefit of your quota.
