Candidates must be physically fit according to physical standards for admission to Indian Forest Service Examination.
As a first step, the aspirant has to procure the “Application Form” along with “Information Brochure” of Indian Forest Service Exam (https://targetstudy.com/exams/ifs-exam/) from any of the “Head Post Offices or Post Offices” spread throughout the country and sent the filled Application form to:
The Secretary

Step 2) In May or June, the aspirants have to take the “Preliminary examinations”. It is consisting of two papers-
1) General Studies (150 marks)
2) Some optional subjects (300 marks)
Once you clear both the exams, then you are through the final stage is the interview. The aspirants are grilled in the interview to test their personality and mental ability. Then the final list of the successful candidates is prepared and those candidates who have opted for these services are admitted for foundation training at the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration at Mussourie. This is followed by a Forest Service-specific orientation at the Indira Gandhi National Forest Academy at Dehradun, with training on forest and wildlife management, soil conservation, surveying, Scheduled Tribes, and handling weapons.
