Hi..friend
the age relaxation for obc's is upto 3 years
so totally the age limit should be 3 years for your categories
you did not mention your about your age
any way the age limit should not be crossed 33 years for you candidates
you have a complete degree with any percentage from any university
upsc provides relaxation for backward candidates
for oc's or general there is no relaxation
for bc's the relaxation should be 3 years
fos sc's the relaxation should be 5 years
so check whether you can eligible or not
any way good luck..

Hi Aspirant,
Yes you can get the age relaxation under OBC category for the civil service exam.
UPSC conducts the civil service exam for the post of IAS.
Age limit for civil service exam is 21 to 30 years
Age relaxation
SC/ST + 5 years
OBC + 3 years
PH + 10 years
Ex serviceman + 5 years.
Education criteria
You must be graduate in any stream from recognized University.
Nationality
You must be Indian.
There is no age relaxation for Muslim community in UPSC exam.
But as you mentioned that you are government employee so you can get the age relaxation of 5 years.
So you can apply for civil service exam till the age of 35 years.
Attempts for civil service exam
4 attempt for general candidates
7 attempt for OBC candidates
No limit for SC/ST
Best of Luck�
