Hi Ashutosh,

Please specify whether you have completed your class 12 regular mode and have a gap year OR you have cleared some of your class 12 papers as a private candidate?

If you have completed your class 12 in regular mode but have a gap year/s, you are eligible provided you meet the minimum age cut-off which is not more than 25 years for general category and 30 years for reserved.
