Right from the first whistle, DM RAO were defensive.
The Sekmai outfits conceded a goal in the 25th minute.
NEROCA's Kallon Verney picked a pass in their rivals' goal area and headed home the opener.
DM RAO exhibited a spirited fight and their defenders had the gumption to challenge with their skills and kept up their good work to prevent any damage to their citadel.
However, DM RAO could not carry on the momentum in the second half as NEROCA FC breached their defence lines thrice to complete the rout.
Even as DM RAO tried to launch a few counter attacks through striker Wungramchan PS, they were prevented from creating any ripple inside their rivals' territory.
NEROCA FC who continued their aggressive game, doubled their lead as S Subash teed up in-form Nigerian striker Ajiogu Chinedu Emmanuel to score a goal in the 61st minute.
Ch Sushil latched on a pass from Ch Anandkumar in the 64th minute to make it 3-0 .
Ajiogu Chinedu Emmanuel capped with the fourth goal as he comfortably converted a penalty kick in the 72nd minute.
Penalty was awarded in favour of NEROCA FC as Ajiogu Chinedu Emmanuel was brought down inside the box by DM RAO defender H Naocha in his attempt to stop him.
