PDF Size Requirements for Indian Government Portals

Indian government exam portals have strict PDF file size limits for uploading marksheets, certificates, category certificates and identity documents. Uploading a PDF even 1KB over the limit causes an automatic error - the portal will not tell you why it failed.
