    Hi friend,





    Well,,you will be eligible at the moment you complete your B.tech/B.E.

    Since according to eligiblity criteria of UPSC :

    >> You are eligible when you have completed your Graduation

    >> You must have age more than 21(that would be i am sure), but not exceed 30(that wouldnt happen right now).

    You may also appear in this exam when you have appeared in your 8th semester, since after that you get eligible, since you will have the pass out certificate when you get ready for Mains.

    Hope it helps!!

    yes dear you are eligible for ies examination if your age lies between 21 to 30 (for general), since the educational qualification required for the exam is an engineering degree or an m.sc degree. this would be easy for you since mechanical is an optional subject in this exam so it would be easy for you to tackle.
