    for next years CSAT your age at the time of application will be (march 2013 - Aug,1982= 30 years 7 months)

    for GENERAL CATEGORY should be within age 21-30 years, so clearly you are not eligible in this category as you are 7 months overage.

    for OBC CATEGORY should be within age 21-33 years, so clearly you are eligible in this category as you are 2 years 5 months underage.

    for SC/ST CATEGORY should be within age 21-35 years, so clearly you are eligible in this category as you are 4 years 5 months underage.

    but otherwise you are eligible for the exam .

    Dear,
    The age limit for the UPSC's CSAT examination is within 21 to 30 years. The upper age limit for the OBC is 03 years, for SC/ST is 05 years. The number of attempts for General candidates is only 04, for OBC, it is 07 and for SC/ST it is up to their last age limit, i.e., 35 years of age. As per your Date of Birth, your age is 30+, so you can only appear the examination, if you belong to the OBC or SC/ST candidates. Otherwise, you can't appear the examination. To know more details, please visit www.upsc.gov.in Thanks........
