Hello,

UPSC conducts various entrance exams such as Civil Service Entrance Examination, National Defence Academy Entrance Examination, Indian Engineering Service Entrance Examination and more. You haven't mentioned that Entrance Examination regarding which you are enquiring. Assuming that you are enquiring about UPSC CSE Entrance Examination the minimum age to be eligible to appear is  21 years as on August 1st in the year of the examination. So you need to check your date as on August 1 in the year in which you have applied. If you are 21 years old or more then you are eligible. If you are below 21 years then you cannot appear even if you pass in Bachelor's Degree. You should meet the age criteria in order to be eligible. If your regarding any other examination conducted by UPSC then please provide the name of the exam, we will provide the relevant information.

Dear student,

The minimum age a student should have for UPSC exam is 21 years old and the age of candidate should be less than 32 years for general category students, whereas there are some relaxation in age limits for reservation availing candidates.

As you have mentioned that your age is currently 20 years and 1 month, so unfortunately it seems like you will not be able to apply for UPSC exam this year(2021) because even in 1 August of 2021 you age will be under 21.

You should know that age is considered keeping 1 August of the year of examination as a measuring point.

I hope this answer helps you.
