  2. To become an IFS officer India, a candidate has to crack the foreign service exam that is conducted by the Union Public Service Commission every year. A candidate has to meet the eligibility criteria required for this foreign service officer test, prepare well for the IFS syllabus and then get a good rank on it. Life as an Indian Foreign Service An Indian foreign service officer is also very much busy like an IAS. This officer is also benefited with these things like an Indian administrative. But an IFS officer must be travel-friendly. Indian foreign service officers need to travel much frequently rather than that of Indian administrative officers. Salary Structure IAS has a good amount of pay scale which is almost the same with an Indian foreign service officer. But the salary of the latter is higher than that of the former because an Indian foreign service officer gets more allowances than an Indian administrative officer. IAS is All India Administrative Service and IFS is All India Foreign Service. The later one gets much more attention when it comes to paying scale. IAS Salary Other than the fact of this being a very prestigious job, the salary that this position offers is also very lucrative. Even though the Indian administrative officer post offers a nice compensation amount, the profile accompanies a tremendous cluster of duties. The basic IAS salary is ₹ 56,100. Allowances like Dearness Allowance (DA), House Rent Allowance (HRA) and Travel Allowance are provided extra. IFS Salary In the case of the salary of an Indian foreign service officer, it goes around ₹ 60,000 per month. This amount of an IFS salary includes all the allowances. If an officer gets posted outside India, then his/ her salary might go up till ₹ 2.40 Lakh, but this varies from country to country and other allowances.

  3. IFS vs Indian Administrative Service Candidates who love to influence people and are travel-oriented should go for the foreign service officer test. Indian foreign service officers have other options to influence people and the country. It has power in international deals and trade. But they cannot control rules and factors of the Government of India which an Indian administrative officer can do. So, power lies in two divisions for IFS and IAS. Which Profile Serves the Nation Better? Officers recruited for both the job roles serve the nation. A foreign service officer serves the nation going beyond its boundaries and territories. An IAS officer serves the country from within the nation. It depends upon the candidate which one to select. Why IAS over IFS India? Vacancy of Indian administrative service is broader than that of the foreign service officer test. To be a foreign secretary or an officer one needs to have more skills particularly in managing foreign deals, the economy of the country concerning foreign trades, war-related issues, and much more communication-oriented professionalism. Most of the candidates are unable to have that much versatility. So, IAS is preferable for most of the candidates to foreign service exams. Are IAS Officers Holders of Diplomatic Passports? No, they cannot have a diplomatic passport. The foreign service officers have to travel to many countries for service and international relations. They are given diplomatic passports for such reasons. 3/3
