Course duration of IAS after graduation

Hi

First of all IAS  is not a course to have a duration, rather IAS is a service in which you can get by qualifying UPSC civil services examination

Your UPSC civil services examination consists of three stages

*The first stage of the exam is Preliminary examination (objective )
*The second stage, Mains (written).
*If you manage to clear mains then you are to go through third stage i.e interview/personality test .

To be eligible for UPSC civil services examination you need to be a graduate in any discipline and at least 21 years old.

And

it completely depends upon you how much time you take after graduation to clear the  UPSC examination as there are many candidates who qualify UPSC in their first attempt after their graduation while there are many who take 3-4 attempts and then qualified and there are some also who are not able to make it even after that.

But don't worry if you prepare well you can definitely  clear UPSC in your first attempt after your graduation itself and can become an IAS officer

To start your preparation  first of all go well through syllabus  , you can check the complete syllabus at
