    Re: Can I appear in Civil Services examination at the age of 42 years being a Government Employee? What is the Maximum age limit to apply for Civil Services Examination?

    hi
    I am sorry to say but being a 42 year old, you are not eligible for giving the civil services examination anyhow.
    For giving the exam you need to be a graduate in any stream from a recognized indian university and your age should be in between 21-30 years.
    For obc category the age limit is 21-33 years whereas the age limit for the sc/st candidates is 21-35 ears.
    There is a relaxation of 10 years given to the PH students, which makes their age limit as 21-40 years.
    And as you do not fit in the age limit, you are not allowed to give the exam.

    You cross the entire age limit so you are not eligible for the exam.

    Hi Sir,

    I'm sorry to say that you're no longer eligible for the UPSC exams.

    And there's age relaxation for the Central Government Employees only.

    The Age limits for the Central Government Employee:

    General : 21-35yrs

    OBC : 21-38yrs

    SC/ST : 21-40yrs

    As ZP school comes under State Government, you're not eligible even if you're 37 yrs.

    I wish You all SUCCESS with your life ahead!
