Sir, I'm serving in Indian Air Force and I belong to OBC caste category. What is maximum age for me for UPSC and Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission? After serving 20 years my age will be 40.5 years. Is there any relaxation for OBC candidates?

Hi,

Yes you are eligible for UPSC entrance exams.

The upper age limit for Ex-serviceman who belong to OBC category is 42 years.

So yes you can give UPSC exams for 2 next years as you are 40 years old.

Same is the procedure for UPPSC.

Thank you
