To become a Chef, you will have to clear NCHM JEE exam so the age criteria for General and OBC category candidates must not be more than 22 years of age. Candidates born on or after July 1, 1995 are eligible to apply and candidates belonging to reserved category including SC/ ST must not be more than 25 years of age. Candidates born on or after July 1, 1992 are eligible to apply Physically Challenged candidates will be offered age relaxation (if applicable) as per their category i.e. GEN/OBC/SC/ST. Also,if you want to go for diploma course then there is no such age criteria in the same.

Hope this helps!!!
