    Dear, as per your DOB your age is 31 years, So you have to produce OBC Certificate for Age relaxation. Secondly, Candidates will have the option to answer all the question papers, except the language papers viz. Papers I and II
    in any one of the languages included in the Eighth Schedule to the Constitution or in English. And since Tamil is included in the above said Schedule you can answer the Question Papers in Tamil. Good Luck....

    Dear Guest,
    To be a IAS officer you have to write Civil Service Examination & the age limit for the same is 21 years – 30 years as on 1st august of the year of the examination..
    But as you belong to OBC category you are eligible for age relaxation. The age relaxation for OBC candidates is 3 years i.e. their upper age limit is 33 year.
    Now, your age will be 32 years 1 months 17 days on the 1st august of the year 2013. So, it is absolutely clear that you are eligible for civil service examination 2013.
    Now let me come to your 2nd question.Yes, you can write the exam in tamil language. However, you doesn’t have option to choose tamil language in the preliminary examination. You can do so only in the mains examination.
    I hope the above information will help you a lot.
    Wish you best of luck.


    THANK YOU.

    Yes you should write the exam in tamil language also but in english paper you should write the paper in english language only .

    As currently your age is 31 years and the maximum age limit for the obc cast is 33 years .

    So you are eligible for the exam but you should fulfill the education criteria also like you should completed your graduation from any recognized university .

    So if you fulfill the criteria then you should eligible for the IAS-2013 exam .

    So if you eligible then start the preparation for the exam because now you have only two years left for the maximum age limit after that you are not eligible for the exam .

    So prepare well for the exam .

    best of luck
