To become CID (Criminal Investigation Department) officer, you are required to give Public Service Commission Examination of your state. You may either give UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) exam or your state's Public Service Examination conducted by your state every year. The minimum educational qualification required to be eligible for CID Examination is " Graduation " or Bachelor Degree from a recognized university. The minimum age of a candidate must be 20 years and maximum age must not exceed 25 years, and age relaxation will be applicable for reserved candidates.

Apart from this other options available for you to become CID Officer are,
* Staff Selection Commission (SSC)
* CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) Exam
So you can apply for the above mentioned recruitment examinations while you are in third year or after completion of graduation. Since you are a third year B.Com Graduate, you are certainly eligible to appear in respective examinations.
