HI Priyanka,
BMS- Bachelor of Management Studies would give you opportunities in the field related to your subject. For example, if you do BMS in Tourism & Hospitality Management then you will get a job in that field. If it is done in International Marketing then you may get absorbed for marketing job too. The starting level of work will be like that of an Assistant Manager. You need to mention your subjects here.

Hi Himanshu,
If you have completed your 12th, you must have known by now which subject interests you more, you can choose accordingly. There is no specific subject required to take your IAS however History, Geography, Sociology , Political Science and Economics are among the most covered topics with political Science and Economics being the most common amongst IAS test takers. Also Economics is good since it gives both quants and theory aspects. To clear IAS in the first attempt you need to prepare rigorously and start the preparation 9 - 12 months before the exam date.
