The maximum age limit is 32 years for general category, 35 years for other backward classes (OBCs), 37 years for scheduled caste (SC) and scheduled tribe (ST) students.
As before, the number of attempts for general category stands at six while the OBCs can appear nine times. There is no limit on the number of attempts for the SCs and STs. However, differently-abled aspirants have been allowed a relaxation of 10 years and nine attempts.
