You can give IAS with your graduation degree only.

Because to become an IAS you should have completed your graduation first in any stream from any recognized university....that is the only educational criteria....then take a look at the following things.

1. Your age should be between 21 years and 30 years.
[33 years for Sc/ST]

2. You should have good knowledge in current affairs and social issues.
[Because you need to have very strong in that]

So if you fulfill the above conditions, you can easily crack IAS exam.

Hi dear,

For IAS, you will need to write civil service exam conducted by UPSC.

The minimum academic qualification required to write the exam is a bachelor's degree from a recognised university.

You should have attained the age of 21 years and should not be over 30 years. (relaxation of 5 years for SC/ST and 3 years for OBC)

The application form is available in the designated Head Post Offices/Post Offices after the notification by UPSC. The advertisement for the same will be published in all leading newspapers including Employment News.

The filled application form should be submitted to
Secretary,
Union Public Service Commission
Dholpur House
Shahjahan Road
New Delhi - 110069

The selection process includes 3 stages
1. Preliminary Exam
2. Main Exam
3. Interview

But according to sources, the preliminary exam will be replaced by civil service aptitude test from next year and the pattern of main exam is supposed to remain the same.

After successful completion of the civil service aptitude test, you will be eligible to write the main examination which will be followed by interview.
For details, you must visit the official website of UPSC.
Thanks
