My dob is 28/Jul/1993. Am i still eligible to sit for PO exam?

Hello aspirant,

In order to prevent their applications from being rejected, candidates applying for the IBPS PO 2024 Recruitment must ensure that they meet these prerequisites.  The IBPS PO test has a minimum age requirement of 20 years old and a maximum age requirement of 30 years old. The upper age limit for OBC candidates is 33 years and for SC/ST category candidates. it is 35 years.

So if you are from general category, then you can not sit for PO exam.

Thank you

For most public sector bank Probationary Officer (PO) exams in India, like the IBPS PO or SBI PO, the age eligibility is typically between 20 to 30 years. However, there are age relaxations for candidates from reserved categories. As per the general category, you should be under 30 years old at the time of the application cut-off date.

Since your date of birth is 28th July 1993, you would have turned 31 in 2024, which technically exceeds the general upper age limit. However, if you belong to an OBC, SC, ST, or other reserved category, you may still be eligible to apply due to the age relaxation policies:

- OBC: 3-year relaxation (up to 33 years)

- SC/ST: 5-year relaxation (up to 35 years)

It’s important to check the specific notification for the PO exam you are aiming for, as age limits may slightly vary, and the cut-off date for age calculation might differ from exam to exam. If you fall under a reserved category, you should still be eligible, but for general category candidates, you may have passed the age limit for most PO exams.
