Getting rejected for wrong photo size is more common than you think. We tested 5 free tools against the exact specifications of 6 major Indian government exams. Here's what actually works.
TL;DR — Quick Answer
For SSC/UPSC/Railway forms, use KuchhBhi Sarkari Photo Studio. It's the only tool that lets you set an exact KB target, join photo+signature in one step, and never uploads your photo to a server.
India's government exam portals (SSC, UPSC, Railway, SBI) have strict upload limits. Most common rejection reasons:
| Exam | Dimensions | File Size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
| SSC CGL / CHSL | 3.5cm × 4.5cm | 20KB–50KB | JPEG |
| UPSC Civil Services | 3.5cm × 4.5cm | 40KB max | JPEG |
| Railway NTPC/Group D | 3.5cm × 4.5cm | 40KB max | JPEG |
| SBI / Bank PO | 3.5cm × 4.5cm | 50KB max | JPEG |
| Agniveer Bharti | 3.5cm × 4.5cm | 10KB–40KB | JPEG |
| State PSC / UPPSC | 3.5cm × 4.5cm | 10KB–50KB | JPEG |
