Government job

State PSC and PCS jobs in your kundli: talk to an astrologer about a state government career

A state service exam can take close to two years from notice to result, so an astrologer reads a longer dasha window than for most central exams.

I cleared the BPSC prelims once but missed the mains cut-off. Is a state government officer post in my kundli, and should I keep trying?

Please share your birth details. I will read your 10th lord, Sun and Moon, then the dashas over the next two years, because a state cycle often runs that long.

Example of a consultation about government job on Kismo

Short answer

Astrologers read a state PSC or PCS job from the 10th house and its lord, the Sun and Moon, which Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra calls the two kings ⁶, and the dashas over a long cycle. Bihar's 70th combined exam took about 21 months from notice to final list and selected 2,027 of 3,28,990 who sat the prelims ¹²³. On Kismo, verified Vedic astrologers read that window by chat or call, online from anywhere.

What gets checked

What does an astrologer check for a state PSC job?

The 10th house for state authority. Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 11.11 lists rajya, state or royal power, first among the 10th house's matters ⁷.
Both royal planets. Chapter 3, verse 14, makes the Sun and the Moon the kings of the planetary court, so many astrologers read both for posts that deal with the public ⁶.
Where the 10th lord's sign points. Phaladeepika 5.9 places earnings in your own country when the lord sits in its own sign, which astrologers apply to a home-state post ⁸.
The strength of the navamsha lord. The same sloka says a strong navamsha lord brings earnings with little effort and a weak one little ⁸.
Two or more dashas. Because a state cycle can last close to two years ³², astrologers read every antardasha that falls between the prelims and the final list.

Your situation

What changes the answer for a state PSC aspirant?

Your state's age limit. UP allowed candidates up to 40 in 2025 ⁴ and Punjab up to 37 ⁵, so the number of cycles left differs widely.
The stage you reached last time. Clearing the prelims but not the mains is a different reading from failing the prelims, both in the chart and in study plans.
How irregular your state's calendar is. When a cycle runs close to two years ³², the reading has to cover the antardashas of the whole stretch.
Whether you also write central exams. Many candidates write UPSC and a state PSC together, which an astrologer reads as one window, not two.

By the numbers

How many candidates clear each stage of a state PSC exam?

About 1 in 162 candidates who sat the prelims got a post in Bihar's 70th combined competitive exam. The shares below are calculated from the stage counts reported by the press ¹².

Stage, BPSC 70th exam	Candidates	Share of the stage before
Sat the prelims	3,28,990 ¹	-
Qualified for the mains	21,581 ¹	6.6% of those who sat
Wrote the mains, 25 to 30 April 2025, in Patna	20,034 ²	92.8% of those qualified
Interviewed	5,450 ²	27.2% of mains candidates
Selected	2,027 for 2,035 posts ²	37.2% of those interviewed

Eight posts for disabled candidates stayed empty because no eligible candidate was found ². The topper scored 593 marks, and the next two tied at 592 ².

The real picture

What does a state civil service exam involve today?

A state civil service exam fills posts like deputy collector, deputy superintendent of police and state tax officer, and each state commission sets its own rules. Bihar's 70th exam opened on 28 September 2024 with 1,957 vacancies ³. Posts were added later, and the final list counted 2,035 ².

Fees and age limits differ by state. Bihar charged ₹600 for general candidates and ₹150 for SC, ST, women and disabled candidates ³. UP set its 2025 limit at 21 to 40 on 1 July 2025 ⁴, while Punjab set 21 to 37 on 1 January 2025 ⁵.

The posts are few for the size of each state. UP's 2025 PCS round advertised 210 posts ⁴, and Punjab's 322 ⁵. Each asks for a bachelor's degree in any subject ⁴⁵.

Cycles also run long. Bihar's 70th exam declared its mains result on 16 December 2025 and its final list in June 2026 ², about 21 months after the notice ³.

A Kismo astrologer can read which part of a long cycle your chart favours and whether it leans to state service. A Kismo astrologer cannot tell you when a commission notifies the next round or what the cut-off will be; follow the commission's own notices for those.

One full cycle

How long did one BPSC combined exam cycle take?

One BPSC combined exam cycle, the 70th, ran from a September 2024 notice to a June 2026 final list. These are the steps in order.

September 2024
Notice for 1,957 vacancies; applications from 28 September to 18 October ³.
January 2025
Prelims result: 21,581 of 3,28,990 qualified for the mains ¹.
April 2025
Mains written by 20,034 candidates at 32 centres in Patna ².
December 2025
Mains result and interview list, published on 16 December ².
June 2026
Final list: 2,027 selected, eight posts left vacant ².

Myths and facts

What do people get wrong about this?

Belief: A state PSC job is easier to get than a UPSC job, so a weaker chart is enough.

In Bihar's 70th exam only about 1 in 162 candidates who sat the prelims was selected ¹². The chart reading follows the same 10th house rules for both ⁷.

Belief: If my dasha is good now, the result will come this year.

A state cycle can run close to two years from notice to final list ³². Astrologers read every antardasha in that stretch, not only the one running at the notice.

Before you pay anyone

How do you know an astrologer is genuine?

Every Kismo astrologer passes four steps: qualification review, panel interview, live audits of real sessions, 30-day probation.
Nobody can guarantee an outcome. Treat any promise of a fixed result as a red flag.
Never pay for an expensive puja or ritual under pressure. Get a second opinion first.
On Kismo you only pay for the minutes you use; misconduct, pressure or a request for money outside the app is handled by a person.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Is a state government officer job written in my kundli?

A kundli can show a leaning towards state service, but no chart writes the selection. Astrologers read the 10th house, which Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra links to rajya, along with the Sun and Moon. Many charts carry these signs, so the reading is about strength and timing while the exam decides.

I cleared the PCS prelims but failed the mains. What does astrology say about trying again?

Astrology can say which months your dasha favours for the next attempt, not whether you will clear the mains. Clearing the prelims is a real step, since only 6.6% of candidates did so in Bihar's 70th exam. Ask a teacher to review your mains answers first, then time your next attempt with the chart.

Which is better for my chart, UPSC or a state PSC?

The same 10th house rules apply to UPSC and a state PSC, so the chart rarely separates them sharply. Some astrologers read a 10th lord in its own sign, per Phaladeepika, as favouring work in your own region. Your age limit, language and state calendar usually decide the choice more clearly than the chart.

Can I talk to an astrologer about my state exam in my own language?

Yes. Kismo is an app where you talk to verified Vedic astrologers by chat or call, in 16 languages. The first session carries 5 free minutes, with no card needed. After that, each astrologer's rate starts from ₹15 a minute.

An astrologer told me to do a costly anushthan before the PCS interview. Is that necessary?

No, a costly anushthan is not necessary for a PCS interview, and pressure to pay is a red flag. Interviews are judged on your answers and conduct. Get a second opinion before paying for any ritual. On Kismo, an astrologer who pressures you or asks for money outside the app is dealt with by a person.

I have been preparing for my state PSC for years and feel stuck. Where can I get help?

You can call Tele-MANAS on 14416, the government's free helpline, which runs 24/7 in 20 languages and covers exam anxiety. Talk to your family or a friend about how long you have been preparing. A mentor can also help you plan a second career alongside the exam.
