    No. The candidate must have attained the age of 21 years and must not have attained the age of 32 years (for the General category candidate) on August 1 of the year of examination. Prescribed age limits vary with respect to caste reservations
    For Other Backward Castes (OBC) the upper age limit is 35
    For Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST), the limit is 37 years. The upper age limit is relaxed for certain candidates who are backward with respect to other factors and differently able.
