#1: UPSC age/attempt relaxation: DoPT elaborates further:

Feb 2014: Government approved two extra attempt for all categories in IAS/IPS exam (click me
(http://mrunal.org/2014/02/central-government-approved-two-extra-attempts-for-allcategories-in-civil-service-exam-2014-with-consequential-age-relaxation.html)). But that
notification was creating some confusion.
March 2014: now Department of Personnel and training (DoPT) issued a separate circular to
elaborate the matter further. click me for the circular
(http://ccis.nic.in/WriteReadData/CircularPortal/D2/D02ser/CSE-04032014.pdf)
Moral of that story circular is following:
General category

Unocial notes about age/attempt limit

These are not given in the official circular, but frequently asked by readers. So Im replying these
based on the previous trend/system/rules of UPSC.
Q. what about IFoS exam?

Q. does this relaxed age/attempt limit also applicable in Indian forest services (IFoS)
exam?
Ans. No. This relaxation only applies to Civil service exam (IAS/IPS).
Forest service (IFoS) is a separate exam- its age/attempt limit is counted separately. Only the
preliminary exam of IAS and IFoS are common. Therefore, we should continue assuming that
IFoS age/attempt=old system remains. (unless UPSC notification changes it on 17th May 2014.)
Q. What about JK residents and Ex-Servicemen?

Ans. Since the circular is silent about them. We can assume the old system continues for them.
However, every JK and Ex-serviceman can also be classified under Gen/OBC/SC-ST/PH. and
therefore benefits / gets hurts accordingly (depends on how UPSC interprets it!). For example:
Before
after
viewpoint #1: circular is silent. = old system continues, he
J&K resident
(SC/ST)
30+10=40
gets 40 years
viewpoint #2: as SC/ST candidate, he gets only 37 years.
because circular did not mention him.
I believe in view point #1. Lets wait for the notification on 17th May.
Q. Do Central service employees get additional age/attempt relaxation?

Ans.
1. No, for the IAS/IPS (Civil service exam).

2. Yes, for CAPF (Assistant commandant exam)
Q. What counts as attempt?

1. Appearing in the preliminary exam, count as attempt.
2. Meaning, in past, if you had filled up the UPSC application form, but you remained ABSENT
in the preliminary exam=> then it doesnt count as attempt.
3. If you wrote the preliminary exam, it counts as attempt. Irrespective of whether you
passed or failed.
Q. When is the age counted? 1st August or 1st January?

1. Traditionally, UPSC civil service exam counted the age on 1st august of the given year.
2. In Indian Engineering service exam, they count age on 1st January. But UPSC still silent on
whether theyll follow the same model for IAS/IPS exam or not? RTIs dont reveal anything.
3. So until any change is officially notified (on 17th May 2014), we should assume that for
IAS/IPS (Civil service exam) exam, the Age limit is counted on 1st August.
4. Meaning, as a general category candidate if you want to appear in 2014s exam, YOU must
not have crossed the 32 years on 1st August 2014.
Q: is this age/attempt limit also valid for 2015, 2016, 2017? or is it only for
2015?
Ans. I dont know. And RTI is unlikely to reveal anything. Most likely the DoPT and UPSC will
reply that CPIO cannot predict the future course of action.
Anyways, official notification of UPSC, will come on 17th May 2015. Hopefully that should throw
some light. [This scenario is similar to optional subjects- no one knows when itll be removed
from the mains exam, we can only come up with conspiracy theories.]
Q. Creamy LAYER OBC = General = 6 attempts & 32 years

From above table, you can see OBC gets 9 attempts and 35 years.
But that applies only to non-creamy layer OBC.
It doesnt apply to creamy layer OBC.
for age/attempt limit: the creamy layer OBC is treated as General category candidate
(meaning 6 attempt, 32 years).

In other words,
OBC type
age limit
attempt limit
non-creamy layer
35
creamy layer
32
How/why? Well observe the following screenshot of 2013s application form. The UPSC form is
designed in such way that creamy layer has to tick General category.
(http://www.flickr.com/photos/97816112@N02/12987860125/)
CLICK ME TO ENLARGE
I repeat again, to claim OBC reservation benefit in UPSC, you need TWO certificates:
1. OBC caste certificate
2. Non-creamy layer certificate.
a. Non creamy layer status depends on your parents income and property.
b. It doesnt depend on your income/property

c. It doesnt depend on your husband/wifes income/property.
d. If your mom/dad is government employee then INCOME criteria doesnt apply. (e.g. if
dad is class3 employee, then it doesnt matter whether he gets 6 lakhs or 7 lakhs. Youre
still non-cream layer. For more, read this PDF file click me
(https://files.secureserver.net/0smMWlEpbHOo0U))
Q: Changing category in between exams = permitted

Q. I had applied as general category in xyz years exam. But for 2014, I want to apply as
OBC/SC/ST candidate. Is this permissible?
Ans. Yes. As long as youve the necessary documents. example, candidate gives 2012s exam as
gen and 2013s as OBC.
Q. Jat reservation in UPSC exam

Q. This week (March 2014), cabinet cleared the file
(http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/jat-leaders-welcomereservation/article5745957.ece). So itll take some weeks before gazette notification is
released. Only after that, local tehsildar/SDM/collector office will start issuing
certificates. Can I claim reservation in in UPSC?
Ans. Youve to keep two things in mind:
#1: closing date in normal circumstances:
1. In UPSC exams, The closing date fixed for the receipt of the application is be treated as the
date for determining the OBC status (including that of creamy layer) of the candidate.
2. For 2014: UPSC prelim application starts from 17 May 2014 and ends at 16 June 2014.
3. So, 16/06/2014 is the closing date.
#2: closing date in extra-ordinary circumstances:
(quoting UPSC notification from 2013): There may be a few cases where there was a little gap
(say 2-3 months) between the issuance of a Government Notification enlisting a particular
community in the list of any of the reserved communities and the date of submission of the
application by the candidate. In such cases the request of change of community from general to
reserved may be considered by the Commission on merit. In case of a candidate unfortunately
becoming physically disabled during the course of the examination, the candidate should
produce valid documents to enable the Commission to take a decision in the matter on merit.
end of copy paste
Non-cream layer jat outside those 9 states= General

OBC list is always State-wise. Cabinet has cleared OBC status only for the jats of nine states
viz. Bihar, Gujarat, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh
and Delhi.
Meaning only the (non-creamy layer) Jats of those states will get OBC age/attempt benefit.
Consider this hypothetical situation:
A Jat candidate, who originally belongs to Madhya Pradesh but currently living in Delhi for last
few months, to study in a coaching class. = No, he doesnt get OBC reservation UNLESS he can
prove that he is a domicile of Delhi. Meaning, he needs to show birth certificate, proof-ofresident/ration card/lightbill/phone bill etc.
If I recall correctly, Delhi sarkaar wants domicile proof that you/your parents are living in Delhi
since 1993, only then you can get OBC certificate.
Moral of the story: you must have two certificates.
1. OBC certificate (depends on state.)
2. non-creamy layer certificate (depends on your parents income/property. BUT for
government servent parents- it doesnt depend on income but rank.)
Moving to the next topics:
#2 and #3 are based on RTI reply filed by Mr.Prashant Kumar.
#2: Indian Engineering Service

Q1. Can an engineer from Computer Science/Information technology eligible to sit in the
exam? if yes, then under which subject (out of the four available) they may apply?
Q2. if a computer science candidate gets selected in another subject (Electrical, etc) is
there any preference given to the Electrical candidate or all must be considered equal?
UPSC replies for Q1 and Q2:
The rules of ESE-2014 are yet to be finalized. However as per the rules of 2013, degree in
engineering in any steam is essential educational qualification for appearing in the engineering
service examination. A candidate may apply for the admission to the examination in respect of
any one of the four categories of the services/posts viz. civil engineering or mechanical
engineering or electronic engineering or electronics and telecommunication engineering.
Q3. Is there any provision or discussion over inclusion of Computer Science/ IT as one of
the subjects in Engineering Service Exam in the coming years?
UPSC replies:
Query is hypothetical in nature and hence does not qualify as information as defined under
section 2/F of the RTI act, 2005
Q4. What is the total time from Pre-Exam to Joining for a candidate in Engineering
Service?
UPSC replies:
there is no such specific timeframe between the conduct of exam and joining of the candidate.
It varies from year to year
Q5. How many Computer Science/IT students have applied and got selected in
Engineering Service Exam 2011 and 2012?
UPSC replies:
The information regarding the qualification of candidates is neither compiled nor maintained in
the manner asked for in the application. As such the information cannot be provided.
#3: NDA/NA Exam-I 2013 cutos

Q1. Please provide the cutoff marks for all categories in the NDA 2013 exam?
NDA stage
marks secured by last candidate
written stage
333/900
final stage
698/1800
Q2. Is the NDA cutoff paper-wise or overall?

UPSC replies: There is no separate paper wise cutoff in this exam.

No. You are not eligible for UPSC 2015 if you do belong to OBC
(Creamy Layer). However, you are eligible to appear if you come
under OBC (NCM).

Could you please throw light on this issue, may be by writing another
article on this.
I respect nigvekar recommendations, but how can the Government be so
sudden in implementing it. They could have informed Earlier. There are
many working guys like me who dropped the idea of writing it in 2014
even though we had filled the form, to give a well prepared attempt in
2015. Now if it is implemented, a general candidate born before 2nd Aug
1988, will not be allowed to write the exam. I seriously dont understand
what message the government wants to send by saying it will be
implemented in 2015 in the end of 2014.
So requesting you to educate us more on this.
