Re: Are diploma (Mechanical) holders eligible for IPS exam or not?

Friend, you are not eligible for IPS Examination. Because only bachelor degree holders in any discipline are eligible for IPS Examination. As diploma is considered equivalent to 10+2 level only. You are advised to go for conversion of diploma into degree level first of all. After getting graduation degree, you will be fully eligible for IPS Examination.

Re: Are diploma (Mechanical) holders eligible for IPS exam or not?

No you can not apply based on only diploma.You need to be graduate to apply for IPS.You can complete your graduation through AMIE or through lateral entry for B.tech mechanical..Your age should be 21-30years to be eligible for IPS.You can check previous years papers also for reference.

Re: Are diploma (Mechanical) holders eligible for IPS exam or not?

Sorry, dear on the basis of diploma in Mechanical you can't apply for IPS. for IPS you need graduation degree in any discipline from recognized college or university with any percentage. So if you want to be an IPS officer you have to complete your graduation or B.Tech. if you are not able to complete your graduation on regular basis then you can also do your graduation on distance based.
for IPS you have to write Civil Services Exam.the exam is conducted by UPSC every year.

your age must be within 21 years to 30 years on 1 August of the year of exam. There is also available relaxation in upper age limit according to government norms as 3 years for OBC and 5 years for SC/ST candidates.


Civil Services exam is conducted in three phases and you have to clear all the phases to become an IPS officer.
The three phases are CSAT(Prelims), Mains and Interview

there is also applicable limit of number of attempts like 4 for General, 7 for OBC and there is no limit of number of attempts for SC/ST candidates.



All The Best for future.....
