    I think the IES website clearly describes the eligibility criteria. My first post is a summary with example. I don't think there should be any confusion about it. #-Link-Snipped-# - you were in February 1995; which means you are eligible to appear for the exam. You should however check the official website regularly for any changes or updates to the eligibility criteria.

    I think the dates are incorrect:
    The age limit in 2015 IES notification is as follows:
    The candidate should not be born earlier than 2nd January, 1985 and not later than 1st January, 1994.

    The age limit in 2016 COULD BE is as follows:
    The candidate should not be born earlier than 2nd January, 1986 and not later than 1st January, 1995.

    The official notification will be given probably on 27th of Feb
