For IAS preparation it would be good if you pursue your BA in the subjects like history, public administration, economics, constitution and geography and among these I think geography and public Administration are the most popular optional subjects for the Mains examination and accounts for nearly 50% share in the final Mains result.
In fact, UPES University of Dehradun has come up with a special IAS oriented BA programme for students to study BA in public administration along with IAS coaching and test preparation. This clearly signals that most of IAS aspirants prefer this subject in their BA.

Yes, you can apply for the UPSC exams in 2019, once you have graduated or even if you are awaiting results. The only condition is that you will have to submit proof of graduation once you have completed the course and will also have to submit detailed application form for UPSC (Main) examination.

Hi Shubham,
It's okay even if you didn't get any of the NLUs. There are many private institutions that you can join, one being Symbiosis law school, Pune. As I'm already a part of the institution I know that they also provide training to students who want to go for UPSC. Apart from this, there are others like Jindal Global Law School, etc.

Yes, but you would have to be specific regarding the exam you wish to attempt. Most of the papers are based on your basic knowledge and it would be important for you to brush up your subject knowledge till 12th, GK and reasoning problems.

Hi,
First of all, I would make it very clear that there is no quota as such for any stream or student for UPSC exam. The only reservations available are with regard to general regulations, as per constitution. Next is up to you. You may take any stream of your choice. What you need to focus is to know the subject better to keep it as an optional paper. For that purpose, even Maths is a good option. You may go ahead with Maths, and keep it as optional subject.
