Hello
To become an IAS officer you need to clear UPSC.
First of all you cannot do graduation from NIOS
This is because,
NIOS is an open school so it offers only education upto 12th.
But yes,
If you want to do graduation in open mode then you can do it from open universities like IGNOU .
UPSC eligibility criteria is provided below:-
******** You must have a bachelor's degree in any, discipline from a recognised university.
†††† So, even if one does graduation from open universities he is eligible for UPSC provided it is recognised one like IGNOU.
******** Minimum age limit :- you need to be at least 21 years old to be eligible as on 1st of August of the year of filling the form
******** Maximum age limit :- 32 years , also there's 3 year relaxation on upper age limit for obc and of 5 years for sc/st category.
†††† Now with your date of birth on 2nd October 1991, right now you are over 29 years old and graduation is of 3 years so by the time you will complete graduation you will be over 32 years old and thus not eligible for UPSC if you belong to general category. But if you belong to obc/sc/st then you are eligible and after qualifying upsc you can become an ias depending upon your rank in upsc.
