To become a IAS officer,you need to write the entrance exam for IAS and the exam is one of the Civil Service exam and this exam is being conducted by UPSC and is held every year.

According to the qualification of yours you cannot apply for the IAS exam as per the education qualification needed for the exam.The needed education qualification for the exam is that the candidate should have completed a Degree from a recognized university but as you have only completed +2 you are not eligible at this stage.It is better that you continue your studies and complete your degree.
