    Re: What CGPA is required in graduation to be eligible for IES exam?

    Hello Friend,

    CGPA is Complete Grade Point Average which is equivalent to percentage.

    CGPA is the average score out of 10 in all 8 semesters in a 4 years B.Tech course.


    But as per eligibility criteria for IES no minimum CGPA is required.

    You have to just satisfy following conditions for being eligible in IES:

    1. Must complete B.E/B.Tech from recognized University with following streams

    Mechanical Engineering,Civil Engineering,Electrical Engineering,Electronics Engineering.

    2. Age must be in between 21 to 30 years. Upper limit of age relaxation for OBC candidate is 3 years and 5 years for SC/ST candidates.

    3. Must be a citizen of India or Subject of Nepal or Bhutan.


    SELECTION PROCESS IN IES:

    -> Preliminary Exam.

    -> Main Exam.

    -> Interview.

    -> Medical Test.

    All the best.

    Hi
    There is no CGPA required in ordewr to appear for the IS examination.
    For giving the IES examination, you jut need to be a graduate in any of the following streams
    Mechanical/electrical/civil/ECE.
    And you just need to be a passed candidate in any of these engineering streams.
    Even if you are having 35% marks, then also you are eligible for giving the exam.

    1. Mechanical Engineering
    2. Electrical Engineering
    3. Civil Engineering

    for IES your age should be within 21 years to 30 years. There is also relaxation in upper age according to government norms vise 3 years for OBC and 5 years for SC/ST candidates.

    There is no marks restriction for IES exam. You do not need some standard CGPA or percentage marks for being eligible.
    The basic qualification required is Graduation in Engineering from any stream. There is no marks criteria for IES or even for Civil Service exam. You will be eligible for IES if you are in Final year or pass out with degree in engineering.

    They never mentioned any cut off marks for the exam. So you are eligible for the exam. but you don't have any active backlogs during the interview.
