Hi dearOriginally Posted by Unregistered
Combined defence services (CDS) Examination of UPSC is for recruitment of officers in defence services and not in Police services. The successful candidates of the CDS Exam join IMA/OTA/NA/AFA according to their preference. So if you want to join Indian army this exam is a great opportunity.
But as you are interested in joining Indian Police Services as an IPS officer; you will have to qualify the Civil Services Exam conducted by UPSC, with a good rank.
The Civil Services Exam is conducted in following steps:
1.Preliminary exam.
2.Main Exam and a Personality test (Interview).
The eligibility criteria for the exam is:
#Nationality: Indian
#Minimum academic qualification required for the Exam: A degree from a recognised university (Graduate).
#Age limit : For Gen.- 21-30 years; for OBC- 21-33 years; for SC/ST- 21-35 yeas.
The registration process will be both online and offline and all the other instructions for the Exam will be published in the Official notification for the Exam, which will be released by UPSC through the website http://www.upsc.gov.in .
Good luck....

IPS stands for Indian Police service.
The entrance examination for it is conducted by UPSC and comes under civil services examination for which eligibility criteria is:
Graduation from a recognised universityand if correspondence then it must approved by DEC( distance education council).
your age should be between 21-30 years.
For becoming IPS officer,you have to clear the three examinations with the given pattern:
IF you belong to general category then you will get only four attempts for obc and sc/st it is 7 and no limit respectively.
CDS is the Combined defence services.
Those who aspire for joining defence can give these examinations for joining in
ARMY
NAVY
AIRFORCE.
Hope the information helps you.
