Age as on date calculator for exams
Cut-offs from official noticesFind your exact age on an exam's crucial date and see straight away whether you fall within the age limit, with the range of eligible birth dates. Presets come from the official notices, linked under the result; any other exam works with a custom date and limits.
Enter a date of birth on or before the 'as on' date.
How to use it
- Enter your date of birth as on your matriculation certificate.
- Choose the exam, or 'Another date' and type the cut-off date and limits from your notice.
- Read your age on that date and whether you are within the general limit; then apply your category relaxation from the notice.

Questions
Is anything I type sent anywhere?
No. The calculation runs in this page with JavaScript; dates, text and numbers are never uploaded or stored on a server.
What does 'age as on' mean in a notification?
It is the single date on which your age is measured for the whole recruitment, called the crucial or cut-off date. It does not matter how old you are on the day you apply or sit the exam.
What is 'attained 21 and not attained 32'?
You must have had your 21st birthday on or before the date, and must not yet have had your 32nd. So someone who turns 32 exactly on the cut-off date is over the limit.
Which date of birth counts?
The one on your matriculation (Class 10) or equivalent certificate. UPSC and SSC do not accept changes to it later, so use exactly that date here.
Is this result accepted by the commission?
No calculator is. It applies the rule in the notice so you can check quickly, but the commission decides on your certificates. Always read the current notice for your exam and category.
My exam is not listed. Can I still use it?
Yes. Choose 'Another date', enter the crucial date from your notice and the age limits; the eligibility check and birth-date range update instantly.
