It is heard that CA are eligible to do Ph.d but whether they are eligible for IAS examination or not , not exactly known

but if you have done graduation from even recognized distance learning institute than you are 100% eligible for IAS examination.

IAS examination is conduct by UPSC once every year and you can apply online through their official website when UPSC issue notification of Preliminary Examination for IAS.

After scoring well in the Preliminary examination you could reach to a second level of examination which is known as Main Examination.

After scoring well in Main Exam ,you will be called for Personal Interview.

So, basically their are 3 stages in IAS which student need to clear to be an IAS officer.

• Preliminary Examination
• Main Examination
• Interview

Minimum Eligibility for IAS

• Graduation from recognized university
• Basic fitness level
• Age - 21 to 30 years

(relaxation for other sc/st/obc candidate)

General Candidate will have four attempts for this examination
