It's not possible to become a Magistrate directly after completing LLB. You must practice as a Lawyer and appear and qualify in the entrance exam conducted by the Law Service Commission.

Eligibility Criteria required to become a Magistrate:

- The candidate must complete Graduation in Law from a recognized university.
- The candidate age should be more than 21 and must not exceed 35 years at the time of applying.
