What is the difference between IAS and IES (pls let me know in detail)? How to prepare for these exams?

aswathypadinjakkara 17th Sep, 2021

Hi

Both the exams are conducted by upsc.IAS stands for Indian Administrative Forces and IES stands for Indian Engineering Services.IAS officers are employed in the administrative sector of government but IES officials deals with the technical works of government.The basic eligibility to apply for IES  is to have a graduation in engineering. BTech graduates who are in their last year of BTech can also apply for these posts. For specific posts, postgraduates from the Science stream like Wireless Communication, Electronics, Radio Physics, Radio Engineering can apply.For IAS the candidates who have passed with a degree in any discipline can apply.The process for IES consists of two stages – A written examination and a personal interview. The examination consists of two sections – an objective type section that covers general topics and a subjective type section where students have to answer essay type questions based on the particular field of engineering.To become an IAS officer,one has to clear the Civil Service Examination conducted by UPSC. The examination consists of three stages – A Preliminary exam followed by the Mains exam which is followed by a Personal Interview. Both exams being the most competitive as well as hard one, you have to do your maximum and work consistently. Go through exam pattern, understand the syllabus, solve mock tests, previous year question papers etc.


Wishing you all the very best for your journey ahead.

who have more power isro scientist or ias

Anushri Varshney 6th Aug, 2021

Hello hello,

Both are equally good. There is no doubt that both of these reputed roles have supreme respect and power equally. Both the job roles are some of the most difficult to acquire by an individual.

See, both fields are different. For being a scientist, a different skill set is required while for Being an IAS, it is the same. The similarity is both works for the betterment of the country in every possible terms.

A scientist needs to have a deep focus on some particular subjects like Satellite data and invention. However, for an IAS, it is the development of the country. No doubt that people always considered IAS to be more prestigious and reputed. But ISRO Scientist also stands at same if we think logically.

Ask yourself whether you want to be an IAS or ISRO scientist. Think accordingly.

A wise decision is always appreciated.

I hope this answer helps you. For any query revert here.

Thank you:)

Suchana Datta 6th Aug, 2021

Hi,

Candidates who pass the exam and become an IAS officer by cracking the UPSC Civil Services Examination get an attractive salary. According to the 7th Pay Commission, the basic salary of an IAS officer is Rs 56,100.


Apart from the salary, an IAS officer is also given several other allowances, including Travel Allowance and Dearness Allowance.

Reports state that the total salary of an IAS officer is more than Rs 1 lakh per month. On the other hand, if an IAS officer reaches the rank of cabinet secretary, then his salary reaches Rs 2,50,000 per month. The officer deputed as cabinet secretary gets the highest salary.

The 7th Pay commission revised the ISRO Scientist salary and allowances. The monthly basic pay INR 15,600 increased with grade pay of INR 6,600. The maximum monthly salary for an ISRO Scientist is INR 80,000 with a consequent increase in the grade pay.

Pay Band plus Grade Pay is the Basic Pay

Employees will receive a Dearness allowance which will be revised twice a year. As per the records of 0215 the DA is 113% every month.

HRA allowance is dependent on the classification of the city they are posted to according to the Government of India Rules. The HRA allowances vary from 10% – 30% of the basic pay.

The transport allowance varies from INR 400 to INR 3,200 depending on the grade of pay and depending on the city of posting.

Dearness allowance on transport allowance is also applicable.

which degree is best for IAS preparations and job

Ayush Maurya 24th Dec, 2021

Hello there

I want to tell you that to become an IAS officer you don't need any specific degree and no any person who qualify UPSC civil services examination are found an edge upon others. Candidates from all the domains give UPSC civil services examination and excel in it.

So totally choose the degree according to your interest as UPSC minimum eligibility criteria is that you must have an undergraduate degree from any recognised University. So don't worry about the domain of the degree just choose wisely in whichever stream you feel interested.

Somehow in many of the articles and on internet you will find that Bachelor in Arts helps candidates to prepare for UPSC civil services examination and this is because most of the syllabus of Bachelor in Arts covers the UPSC civil services examination syllabus and candidates found it somehow helpful. So you can consider this thing also.
