If a candidate is not able to download his/her e-Admit Card or any other communication regarding his/her candidature for the examination till 14th March, 2016 is not received from the Commission, he/she should at once contact the Commission.

No candidate will ordinarily be allowed to take the examination unless he/she holds an e-admission certificate for the examination. On receipt of e-Admit Card, check it carefully and bring discrepancies/ errors, if any, to the notice of UPSC immediately.

The candidates should note that their admission to the examination will be purely provisional based on the information given by them in the Application Form. This will be subject to verification of all the eligibility conditions by the UPSC.

The mere fact that an e-Admit Card to the Examination has been issued to a candidate will not imply that the Commission has finally cleared his/her candidature or that the Commission has accepted entries made by the candidate in his/her application for the Examination as true and correct. Candidates may note that the Commission will take up the verification of eligibility conditions of a candidate, with reference to original documents, only after the candidate has qualified the Indian Economic Service/Indian Statistical Service (Written) Examination. Unless the Commission formally confirms candidature, it continues to be provisional.

The decision of the Commission as to the eligibility or otherwise of a candidate for admission to the Examination shall be final.

Candidates should note that the name in the e-Admit Card in some cases may be abbreviated due to technical reasons.

(ii) In the event of a candidate downloading more than one e-admission certificate from the website of the Commission, he/she should use only one of these admission certificates for appearing in the examination.

(iii) The candidates must ensure that their E-Mail IDs given in their Online Applications are valid and active as the Commission may use electronic mode of communication while contacting them at different stages of examination processes.

(iv) A candidate must see that communications sent to him/her at the address stated in his/her application are redirected, if necessary. Change in address should be communicated to the Commission at the earliest opportunity. Although the Commission make every effort to take account of such changes, they cannot accept any responsibility in the matter.

(v) If a candidate receives an e-Admit Card in respect of some other candidate the same should immediately be brought to the notice of Commission with a request to issue the correct e-Admit Card. Candidates may note that they will not be allowed to take the examination on the strength of an e-Admit Card issued in respect of another candidate.
