Hello Harsh,

For the UPSC Civil Services Examination (CSE) 2027, the age eligibility criteria must be carefully checked. The general rule is that candidates must be at least 21 years old and not more than 32 years old as of August 1 of the exam year. Since your date of birth is 22/04/2006, you will turn 21 on 22/04/2027 . The preliminary exam for UPSC 2027 is usually conducted around May or June 2027 , which means you will have already crossed the minimum age limit by the time of the exam. Therefore, you are eligible to appear for UPSC CSE 2027 from the age perspective. Make sure you also meet the educational qualification requirement, which is a graduate degree from a recognised university by the time of the exam.

Educational Qualification

Besides the age requirement, there is a crucial educational criterion. A candidate must possess a bachelor's degree (graduation) from any government-recognized university.
