    Dear you have crossed the maximum age limit which is required for Civil services exam and according to UPSC board your age should not be less than 21 years and more than 30 years but if you are in SC/ST then you will get 5 years and for OBCs will get 3 years upper age relaxation so that if you are in SC/ST category then you are eligible to apply for civil services exams but only last chance means in only 2013 for pre exam you can apply but you must be in SC/ST category and if you are in general or OBCs then you are not eligible for this exam.
