Hello Neha,
The science stream candidates can apply for CSIR NET JEF while other stream candidates can appear for UGC NET JRF for their post-graduation or its related subjects.

The age limit and educational qualification for the JRF is as follows:

Age limit: The candidates below 30 years for UGC NET JRF can apply while for CSIR NET JRF the maximum age limit is 28 years.

Educational qualification: The candidates must have the post graduation degree with minimum 55% marks from the recognized university.

Also, there is relaxation in age and educational qualification for reserved and women category candidates.

as you have completed the post-graduation, you are eligible to apply for the NET JRF.
All the best
