Common upload problems this solves

Calculating age as of today instead of the official cutoff date

Exam notifications almost always specify a future or past date (e.g. 01/08/2026). Always enter the cutoff date mentioned in the recruitment PDF.

Forgetting to apply non-creamy layer OBC relaxation

OBC candidates enjoy an extra 3 years on the maximum age limit for central government examinations.

Confusing birth year math with exact calendar day math

A candidate who turns 27 on 02-08-2026 is eligible if the cutoff is 01-08-2026, even though both dates fall in August. Exact day calculation is mandatory.
