maximum age is 30 sir..you are not eligible for civil service exam....but u can try for other govt exam

hello sir....
you should not be over 30 years on August 1 of the year of examination.
But...the upper age limit is relaxed in specific cases as mentioned below:

a. upto a maximum of 5 years if the candidate belongs to SC/ST.
b. upto a maximum of 3 years if the candidate belongs to Other Backward Classes.
c.upto a maximum of 10 years in the case of blind, deaf-mute and orthopaedically handicapped candidates.
so check whether you are eligible are not

as your age is 31 so you will not be eligible for civil service examination.

the maximum age limit for civil service examination is 30 for general candidate. there is 5years relaxation for SC/St candidate. if you belongs to SC/ST then you are till eligible for civil service examination.

then you may try for it. but if you are general candidate then you already missed your chances. now you should try for other job. or if you are doing any job you have to continue with it.

best wishes.

Assuming you know the age limit of appearing for civil service exam, it is 30 unless you belong to SC/ST category.

You can enrol yourself to any of the coaching centres too
