Worked example

An OBC candidate born 31 December 1988 is 37 years, 0 months old on the cutoff date — which is within the Graduate-post limit of 39 . A General-category candidate with the same date of birth would already be past the unrelaxed limit of 36 — this 3-year difference is the entire effect of the OBC relaxation.
