What is the UPSC Age Calculator?
The UPSC Age Calculator is a specialized digital tool that helps Civil Services aspirants determine their eligibility for the UPSC exam based on:
✅ Age limits (category-wise relaxations)
✅ Number of attempts remaining
✅ Special provisions (PwD, ex-servicemen, J&K domicile)
UPSC calculates age as of August 1 of the exam year—not the Prelims date. This tool eliminates manual errors and provides instant results.
