Let us first see the eligibility criteria required to become an IPS (Indian Police Service) with respect to Height -

1. For Males -

  • All categories (except ST) - 165 cm
  • ST Category - 160 cm

2. For Females -

  • All categories (except ST) - 150 cm
  • ST Category - 145 cm

Considering you are a female aspirant with OBC Category, you are marginally short in height, and hence, might not be eligible to be an IPS Officer.
