No there is no such facility for women candidates.
In IAS entrance exam(Officially called as Civil Service Examination).
which is conducted by UPSC

Women candidates are benefited in different areas like Application fees and during the cadre selection.

during the Service selection but there is no such Facility in the max age limit relaxation.

they have to clear the examination before 30 years of age.

only relaxation in age limit for OBC SC/ST candidates
No BC candidates are also eligible for age relaxation.

For OBC the relaxation is upto 3 years after the max age limit.
for SC/ST candidates the relaxation is upto 5 years after their max age limit.

And similarly there is no relaxation for the ex service men quota or anything else only the above categories like OBC/SC/ST are only eligible for age limit relaxation.

This is all the information gathered from my sources. I'm correct upto 98% but there may be any recent amendment changes which makes sense of difference so Go through the other members answers also for the clarification.

And I'll also provide you the official link of UPSC so go and look into it.
you will get good knowledge according to previous notifications. I have gathered the above information from suck ilk of notification only.

The official link is www.upsc.gov.in

All the best

I have one question. Why should not govt increase upper age limit 42 years instead of 32 years to women?.
generally after marriage women sacrifice their life to their family and society also.since she has great responsibility to conceive and delivery a child. if once delivery/conceive the woman should spend three years to her child or she recovery as normal physical health its know to all human being through doctors.that is she could not spend her life in upsc exam studies also as men, at least 3 years in her life. so she may allow to get more upper age relaxation that is 5 years more than men upper age relaxation. why should not possible it?.
why not all men can vote for it?.
