UPSC Civil Services Exam
See the subject you are doing graduation on doesn't matter for UPSC. The only thing which matters regarding the selection in UPSC CSE & becoming an IAS is the preparation you have gone through. So you have to make your preparation great. Now you should choose the subject of graduation which you are interested. Pursue that subject. The core psychology behind this is that, if you study the subject of your interest, then it will require less time for you to invest in your studies & you can invest more time in your preparation.
The subjects you have in 10+2 are quite good and if you wish you can do the UG program in Psychology, Economics, or Political Science. This subjects are in the curriculum of UPSC and having an indepth knowledge may provide you a better platform. Now its your choice, the thing you should understand is that your preparation matters & not your graduation subject.

All The Best!!
This is a genuine concern for a lot of students. That’s probably because juggling two things at once not just seems difficult, it actually is difficult.
Although, as surprising as it is, most people prepare for the UPSC CSE examination while still being in college. That would mean it very much is possible.
All the best for your future pursuits!
