Hi, I am a female candidate and wanted to apply for PRT Teacher in KVS. Could you please tell me the lower and upper age criteria? Is there any age relaxation for SC/ST female candidates?

There is no special age relaxtion available for lady teacher in KVS.
As per government of India rule, age relaxation criteria is as mentioned below:-
Age limit for PRT in KVS is 30 years.
Age relaxtion:-
OBC - 3 years
SC/ST - 5 years
Women( all categories)- 10 years
PH Candidates - 10 years
Ex - Servicemen - 3 years.

KVS means Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan.
No age bar in the case of employees of Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan.
Up to a maximum of 5 years in the case of SC/ST category candidates.
Up to a maximum 3 years in the case of OBC candidates
Up to a maximum 5 years for persons who had ordinarily been domiciled in the state of Jammu and Kashmir .
Minimum age limit is 17 years and maximum age limit is 18 years.

The permissible upper age limit to apply for KVS (Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan) Primary Teacher recruitment is 30 years in case of candidates from general category. Further, there is provision of upper age relaxation in case of candidates from reserved category as per the government norms. Also, there is provision of age relaxation upto 10 years in case of women candidates from all category.

And, therefore the maximum permissible age limit for female candidates from SC/ST to apply for KVS PRT recruitment is 40 years.
