Firstly you should know that entrance exam for both Indian Administrative Service as well Indian Police Service is the same. It is called Civil Services Examination.

The age limit is same for both the exams. For general category student, the age limit is 30 years. Since you are 27 years old, it is possible for you to appear for the entrance exam.

I hope this solves your confusion. I should further add that the age of the candidate is calculated as on the August 1 of examinaton year. For example if you are appearing for the Civil Services Examination in 2014, your age would be based on August 1, 2014.

Up to August 1 you should be within the age limit which is 30 years. Suppose your birthday is in April. So next year when you will be applying for the Civil Services Examination in January, your age will be registered as 28 years since it will be based on August 1.

If you are 29 years old in January when the forms are released but you will cross the 30 years mark before August 1 of same year, in such case you will not be allowed to apear for the Civil Services Examination.


Eligibility

1. Indian nationals are eligible to apply for this exam.

2. The minimum qualification required to appear is graduation.

3. There is no minimum percentage criteria.

4. As on August 1 of exam year you should be between 21 to 30 years old.

5. Upper age limit is extended to 33 years for OBC.

6. Similarly there is 5 years extension in upper age limit for SC/ST.


Selection Procedure

1. You will first give preliminary exam. Based on the performance you will be called for the second stage of written tests called Main Examination.

2. In Main Examination you will appear for 9 written tests ranging from Language, general studies and 2 subjects of your choice.

3. Personal Interview is the last step.
