Hello Friend,

The maximum age limit is 30 yrs for general candidates. A candidate must not already reach 30 yrs of age on 1 Aug of the year of exam. So, if you were born before 1 Aug' 1983, you aren't eligible to appear in CSE 2013. But if you belong to OBC(non creamy layer) or SC/ST category, you are eligible to appear in IAS exam.

Thanks,
