    Hi dear

    UPSC does not provide age relaxation to female candidates, for Civil Services Exam.

    It also does not bother about candidates marital status.

    But it does provide upper age relaxation to certain categories.

    For general candidates the upper age limit is 30 years
    For OBC candidates the upper age limit is 33 years
    For SC/ST candidates upper age limit is 35 years.

    So if you are eligible to write Civil Services Exam only if you belong to some reserved category.
