    2. the age allowed for obc category:- 21-33 years.

    3. for sc/st category the allowed age are :- 21-35.


    so as you seen if you are sc/st or obc category candidate only then you are eligible for the same .

    2.candidate must be an Indian.

    Hello my dear Friend ...


    I.P.S --- INDIAN POLICE SERVICES ..


    This IPS exam is conducted by the " UNION PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION "


    I AM REALLY SORRY TO SAY THIS DEAR ..

    You can apply for the THIS YEAR EXAM ... Because Time is over


    And for the next year I think your age will be 30 + ..

    YOU CAN NOT APPLY FOR THE I.P.S exam


    YOU WOULD HAVE ASKED THE SAME QUESTION BEFORE AT LEAST 6 MONTHS

    Then you would have applied for it



    IF YOU ARE BELONG TO THE "" RESERVED CATEGORY "" like


    OBC

    SC / ST ...etc . ... YOU CAN EVEN THEN APPLY FOR THE EXAM




    IF NOT ..I AM REALLY SORRY



    GOOD LUCK

    Re: Will I be eligible for IPS exam at the age of 29 complete & 30 running (in yrs)?

    Age limit for IAS exam is 21-30 years. Those who belong to reserved category are eligible to get age relaxation.

    SC/ST category candidates get 5 years relaxation and OBC category gets 3 years relaxation.

    You also must have qualifications other than age to become eligible for IAS examination.

    The minimum qualification for IAS examination is Graduation in any discipline from a recognized University.

    The selection as an IAS officer will depend upon the performance in the Preliminary exam, Mains Exam and Interview.

    So get yourself prepared for the exam if you fulfill above points for IAS exam.
