No, you are not eligible for IAS exam.

IAS stands for Indian Administrative Services. IAS exam is conducted by Union Public Service Commission. IAS exam is conducted one time in a year.

If you have completed graduation in any discipline from a recognized university then you are eligible for IAS exam.

Age Criteria:

For General: 21 to 30 years
For OBC: 21 to 33 years
For SC/ST: 21 to 35 years

No. of Attempts:

For General: 3
For OBC: 7
For SC/ST: No Restriction

AMIE is still considered equivalent to engineering graduation and you will be definitely eligible for IAS exam after completion of the said course. Therefore, as of now you can take admission without any worries and continue with your job.

Just make sure that your age is between 21 to 30 years when you are applying for IAS exam after completion of AMIE. Exam is conducted by UPSC and graduation in any discipline is the required qualification for it.
