Why Should You Subscribe?

You will NOT have to follow two separate timetables to prepare for the UPSC Civil Services Examination. You can follow a single timetable by actively participating on a regular basis and testing your preparation at various levels. Your confidence will reach its peak once you begin to follow this timetable and start realizing its benefits.

Moreover, timely feedback and mentoring from the Insights team will help you avoid many of the common mistakes that average aspirants tend to make during their preparation.

The integrated approach of preparation and practice has time and again proven to be one of the most rational and practical approaches to clear the exam. It is said:“Read to remember and Write to Retain”. Based on our experience of guiding several thousands of aspirants, we have learnt that it is indeed true. It is important for an aspirant to not only read and learn from textbooks, but also to analyse, understand and apply the concepts learnt in a structured format. This will help them to commit mistakes faster, while they practice and improve the quality as well as speed of answer writing & solving MCQs.

The Core Philosophy of IPM program is to provide a SINGLE timetable that covers both the Prelims and Mains Syllabus in a holistic manner, enabling students to complete the syllabus part by part and be tested on it from the point of Prelims (MCQs) and Mains (Descriptive Answers) simultaneously.

Abraham Lincoln had said, “If I had five minutes to chop down a tree, I’d spend the first three sharpening my axe.”

Every UPSC aspirant starts with a dream—a dream to serve, to create impact, and to wear the badge of honour as a civil servant. But what transforms that dream into a rank is not just hard work. It is strategy, consistency, and the right guidance.

What is IPM 2026?

IPM is not just a test series—it’s a structured, holistic, and integrated approach to conquer both Prelims and Mains with a single timetable.

Through our EBS approachEssential, Breakthrough, and Simulation—the program helps aspirants build fundamentals, apply knowledge in dynamic scenarios, and simulate real UPSC conditions.

It is the only program where Prelims MCQs and Mains descriptive questions are aligned under one cohesive plan, helping students move seamlessly between both exams without silos.

With UPSC evolving every year, the need of the hour is not scattered effort—but structured consistency, timely testing, answer writing mastery, and sharp guidance. IPM 2026 brings this together in a single timetable, helping aspirants prepare both Prelims and Mains simultaneously, just like the toppers did.

And what makes it unbeatable?

Mentorship. Daily answer writing. Real-time evaluation. Portal analytics. Everything that an aspirant dreams of—but rarely finds under one roof.

REAL TOPPERS. REAL STORIES. REAL IMPACT

Kumud Mishra (AIR 69, UPSC CSE 2024) walked into InsightsIAS with doubt & uncertainty. But she found a system that never let her lose momentum. She credits the IPM test series and structured answer writing as the turning point.

Yash Jaluka (AIR 4, 2020) wasn’t just choosing a test series—he was choosing accountability and mentorship. He said the way Insights trained him to write under pressure helped him crack Prelims and Mains in his first attempt.

Meera K (AIR 6, 2020) found the IPM plan as her anchor to decode the syllabus and stay grounded with mentor support and discussion videos.

Prativa Lama (AIR 461, UPSC CSE 2024): Her achievement is proof of how focused mentorship + structure = success through IPM.

Detailed explanation of the timetable and tips to follow the timetable:

  1. The timetable is so designed that we complete every subject in 3 rounds:
    • 1st Round is Essential round where you can expect questions mostly to check your conceptual understanding.
    • 2nd Round is Breakthrough round where you will apply knowledge and skills to solve the questions (link for skills & intelligent guessing is given at the end of the document)
    • 3rd Round is Simulation round where the entire paper mimics UPSC Prelims Paper and prepares you to tackle any kind of question.
  2. Time Gap Between tests in Essential round is kept 10 days (in 95% of the cases except during Sundays and Festivals & Revision Test) as it is the 1st time that you will be covering the syllabus. Even if you are not able to complete the syllabus, do not panic, as you will be covering during the Revision tests and also the 2nd round.
  3. Time Gap between the tests in Breakthrough round is reduced to 7 days (except GS-4 MAINS TESTS) having known that you would have covered the syllabus during elementary round. Again, Revision Tests of Breakthrough round will equip you with confidence of having covered the syllabus 4 times by now. In the Breakthrough Round you will also be covering important releases by Government from which questions are mostly expected every year – INDIA YEAR BOOK, ECONOMIC SURVEY & BUDGET.
  4. Before the start of the Simulation Round, we will be providing you classes with tips and techniques in scoring high in prelims and also a few other important classes.
  5. The Simulation Round Mimics the UPSC exam and ensures you are well prepared for any kind of paper in the exam. We try to nudge you with the difficulty level and out of the box questions. Alternate Simulation Tests will have GS as well as CSAT on the same day so that you get acclimatized to the UPSC Prelims exam.
  6. Note on Sources Mentioned:
    • In all cases except otherwise specifically mentioned we will follow New NCERTs
    • Economy: New edition of Ramesh Singh will be referred.
    • Modern India: Refer to either the Latest edition of the Spectrum Publication or Struggle for India’s Independence – Bipin Chandra.
    • Current Affairs: We will be covering Current Affairs of the intervening period between tests for all the upcoming tests from multiple sources. However, depending on the importance and need we may cover current affairs of previous months’ too.
    • Map Based Questions: We suggest students to complete one exercise of Map work of all important political and physical geography. Emphasis should be on political and physical maps of places in news.
  7. Other parts of the syllabus: (National Parks/Biosphere Reserves etc. + Regional and International bodies + Tribes of India): We will share a break-up of the plan and resources to study and attempt this part of the syllabus in due time.
