Questions
- How is age counted for a government exam?
- Your age is counted as on a date the notice gives (often the 1st of January or August, or the last date to apply). Enter that date as 'Age as on'.
- What does an upper age limit of 27 mean?
- You must not have completed more than 27 years on that date. Someone who is 27 years and 11 months old is still within the limit; at 28 they are over it.
- How much age relaxation do OBC, SC, ST and PwD candidates get?
- For most central government posts it is 3 years for OBC, 5 years for SC and ST, and 10 years for PwD (more when combined with a category). Every notice sets its own rules, so always check the official notice.
