How government recruitment age limits work
Most government recruitment notifications specify a minimum and maximum age "as on" a fixed reference date (often the closing date of applications, sometimes 1 January or 1 July of the recruitment year) — not the date you apply. Always check the exact reference date in the official notification, then use this calculator with that date in the "Calculate age as of" field.
Age relaxation
Reserved categories (OBC, SC/ST, PwBD, ex-servicemen and others) are usually given age relaxation over the general upper age limit. The exact relaxation years differ by recruiting organization and category — check the official notification for the applicable figure rather than assuming a standard relaxation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which date should I use for "as of"?
Use the exact reference date mentioned in the official notification for that specific recruitment — it varies by organization and by year.
Does this calculator account for age relaxation?
No — it calculates your exact age only. Apply any category-based age relaxation separately using the figures from the official notification.
