    Yes, the number of IES vacancies can increase after the IES notification. For example, in the case of UPSC ESE 2023, the vacancies were initially announced as 327 but were later increased to 337 through an addendum to the original notification. This increase in vacancies during the examination process is not uncommon and can provide candidates with more opportunities.

    Therefore, candidates should stay updated with official notifications and announcements to be aware of any changes in the number of vacancies for the IES exam.
