I am a pass graduate in B.A course from Calcutta University, and now I am doing M.A in English from Calcutta University itself. Can I sit for NET/ SET or similar exams taking up English as the subject. And if I do, what would be my scope.. will I be able to do further researches?

If you have got MA degree with 55% marks then you can surely appear for NET/SET without any issues. There is relaxation of 5% marks for reserved category candidates.

After cracking above exams you will be eligible for admission in Ph.D as well as fellowships if you have applied for JRF. Hence, if you fulfill the marks then be prepared for the exams.
