Hello Aspirant,

According to UPSC eligibility criteria, academic requirements are:

1. Minimum qualification for UPSC exam: The candidate must hold a degree from Government recognized Universities or possess an equivalent qualification.

2. Candidates who are in their final year or awaiting results are also eligible to appear for UPSC preliminary Examination. All such candidates who are likely to appear for IAS exams must produce proof of having passed the said examination along with the application for the main IAS examination.

3. Candidates having professional and technical qualifications recognized by the Government as equivalent to professional and technical degrees.

3. Medical students who have passed the final year of MBBS, but are yet to complete their internship also have eligibility for IAS. Although, along with the Main Examination application, a certificate of course completion (including internship) from the concerned authority of the University/Institution has to be submitted.

And the IAS exam age limit is 21-32 years with age relaxation as per categories like:

General: Min: 21 Yr and Max: 32 yrs

EWS: Min:21 Yrs and Max: 32 Yrs

SC/ST: Min:21 Yrs and Max:  37 Yrs

OBC : Min: 21 Yrs and Max: 35 Yrs.

According to your birth year, you will be eligible in the year 2025-26.
