I am planning to get a tattoo done since i am only in the 1st year of graduation. And i am preparing for upsc as well. So i would like to know what will be the effect of my tattoo in writing UPSC examination?

The selection of candidates in UPSC is purely based on the entrance examination score and personal interview.

However, there are some services like I.P.S, I.F.S etc for which Physical fitness test is mandatory. Then as per rules you rejected for the posts.

Therefore, more or less getting a tattoo has it's effect on the UPSC exam.

It is not advisable to have tattoos when you appear for government jobs. If you have any remove them before you go for an interview and medical examinations. The career is more important than any other things like tattoo etc. So concentrate on your studies and prepare well for the UPSC examination. So do not have tattoos when appear for interviews.
