    Dear friend,

    There is no question of doubt that why can't you apply for IAS graduate.

    You have completed your Graduation and so you have become eligible for this exam.

    See it doenot at all matter whether you have completed your degree from arts, commerce or science. Its just a matter of thing that you have completed your graduation or not.

    IAS exam is not an exam related to a particular subject, so all stream candidates and all type of graduates are eligible for the exam.

    For going into IAS you will have to give civil services exam.

    To make you more you clear I am giving you the eligibility criteria below:-


    >>> You should have graduation completed from a recognized university.

    >>> Your stream does not matter.

    >>> Also percentage here does not is taken into consideration.

    >>> You must be an Indian Candidate.

    BUT AGE LIMIT IS TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. HERE ARE THE DETAILS:

    GENERAL- 21 TO 30 YRS

    OBC- 21 TO 33 YRS

    SC/ST- 21 TO 35 YRS

    PH- 21 TO 40 YRS

    Dear Friend,

    Yes , you are eligible for IAS exam.

    IAS stands for Indian Administrative Services . It is an officer level post comes into civil services. For that you give civil services examination.

    For civil services exam candidate must be graduate and also can apply in last year of graduation.
    It does not matter that in which fields you are doing your graduation. Only it is required that you should be graduate from any recognized university.

    No percentage barrier for civil services exam , If candidate just have passing marks in graduation are also eligible.

    candidate must be under 21-30 years.

    Good Luck
