How to calculate your age
Two dates, one button — no account and nothing to install.
Step 1: Enter your date of birth
Type it or pick it from the calendar — day, month and year exactly as printed on your birth certificate or matriculation mark sheet.
Step 2: Choose the date to age on
It starts on today. Change it to the cut-off date your notification gives, such as 01/01/2027, to see the age the form will count.
Step 3: Press Calculate age
The answer appears instantly, in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, so your date of birth never leaves your phone or computer.
Step 4: Read or copy the result
Exact years, months and days, plus totals, your next birthday and the weekday you were born on. Copy the lot with one tap.
Why use this age calculator
Made for the line on every recruitment notification that says “age as on” a date you have to work out for yourself — then get the rest of the application ready with our photo resizer.
Built for the cut-off date
SSC, UPSC, Railway, IBPS and state PSC notifications fix an age as on a particular date — usually 1 January or 1 August. Set that date and see the exact age the form will count, not today’s.
Exact, never rounded
Completed years first, then completed months, then the days left over — the same way an age is written on an application. Leap years and month lengths are handled properly.
Every unit at once
The same age restated in months, weeks, days, hours and minutes, so you never have to convert it by hand for a form or a project.
Your date of birth stays private
The whole calculation runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, nothing is stored, and there is no account to create.
Free and unlimited
No sign-up, no daily limit and no charge — check as many dates as you like, as often as you like.
Works on any device
Android, iPhone, tablet or desktop, in any modern browser. The page is light enough to load on a slow connection.
Frequently asked questions
Age limits, cut-off dates, leap years and what happens to the date you type in.
How do I calculate my exact age?
Enter your date of birth in the first box and leave the second box on today, then press Calculate age. You get your age as completed years, months and days — for example, someone born on 10 March 2001 is 25 years, 9 months and 22 days old on 1 January 2027. The same span is also shown in total months, weeks, days, hours and minutes.
How do I check my age as on a cut-off date like 01/01/2027?
Change the "Calculate age on" box to that date. Almost every Indian government recruitment notification fixes eligibility "as on" a specific day — commonly 1 January, 1 July or 1 August of the exam year — and your age on that date is the one that decides whether you qualify, not your age on the day you apply. The calculator accepts any date, past or future, so you can check next year’s cycle today.
How is the age calculated — is it rounded?
Nothing is rounded. The calculator counts whole years first, then whole months, then the days left over, which is exactly how an age is stated on an application form. Month lengths are used as they really are, so 31 January to 1 March is one month and one day, and leap days are counted where they occur.
Does it handle leap years and a 29 February birthday?
Yes. Leap days are counted in every total, so the day and hour figures are accurate rather than assuming 365-day years. If you were born on 29 February, your birthday is treated as 28 February in ordinary years — the date most Indian offices and forms use — so the countdown to your next birthday never skips a year.
Can I calculate an age between any two dates, not just from a birthday?
Yes. The two boxes are just a start date and an end date. Put a joining date, a certificate date or the start of a service period in the first box and the closing date in the second, and you get the exact gap in years, months and days — useful for work experience, seniority and length-of-service claims.
Is my date of birth stored or sent anywhere?
No. Unlike our image and PDF tools, this calculator sends nothing to a server at all — the arithmetic runs inside your browser on your own device. Your date of birth is not uploaded, not logged and not stored, and it disappears the moment you close the tab.
What does the next birthday countdown show?
It shows how many days remain until your next birthday, the exact date it falls on, the day of the week it lands on, and the age you will turn. The count runs from the date in the "Calculate age on" box, so if you change that date the countdown moves with it.
Why does it also show a star sign?
Because the day you were born on is the thing most people look up next. The sign shown is the western sun sign, worked out from the date alone. It is not your Hindu rashi or nakshatra — those are calculated from the position of the moon and need your exact time and place of birth as well as the date.
What is the age limit for SSC, UPSC, Railway and IBPS exams?
It varies by exam, post and category, and it changes from year to year, so always read the age criteria in the official notification for the post you are applying to. Most give a minimum and maximum age "as on" a cut-off date, with relaxation for OBC, SC, ST, PwD and ex-servicemen candidates. What this tool does is give you the exact age on that date so you can compare it with the limits the notification states.
Does the calculator work on mobile and without an internet connection?
Yes to both. It is fully responsive on Android and iPhone, and once the page has loaded there is no further network request — the calculation itself works even if your connection drops.
