How the checker works

Cut-off dates. Every exam notification names a date on which your age is counted. The checker compares your date of birth with that date, not with today and not with the exam date. You must have reached the minimum age and must not have crossed the upper age limit on that day, and the results show the exact range of birth dates that qualifies.

Age relaxation. Some categories get extra years on the upper age limit. The checker applies the rule recorded for each exam, and never adds relaxations together unless that exam's rule allows it. Where a rule is not recorded, the exam is marked "Check notification" instead of guessing.

Why you must still confirm. Notifications can change age limits, dates, vacancies and qualification wording from year to year. This tool gives an estimate from published rules. Always read the official notification before you apply. Each result shows the date the rules were last verified.

Frequently asked questions

Which government exams can I apply for after graduation?

Graduates can apply for central government recruitment, banking, railways, defence, police, teaching, PSU and state commission exams. Enter your details in the checker above to see which ones fit your age, category and degree.

How is age calculated for government exams?

Age is counted on the cut-off date given in each exam notification, not on the day you apply or the exam date. You must have reached the minimum age and must not have crossed the upper age limit on that date. The checker shows the exact range of birth dates that qualifies for each exam.

What is the age relaxation for OBC, SC and ST candidates?

Candidates from reserved categories usually get extra years on the upper age limit. The exact number depends on the exam and your category, so the checker applies the rule recorded for each exam. Always confirm it in the official notification.

Can final-year students apply for government jobs?

It depends on the exam. Some notifications allow final-year students or those awaiting results if they can show the degree by a stated date, while others need the degree before the application closes. The checker marks each exam as final-year allowed or not.

Is EWS given age relaxation?

EWS candidates are generally treated like General candidates for the upper age limit, but rules differ by exam. The checker uses the rule recorded for each exam, so confirm it in the official notification.
