Get a photo under 50 KB without losing clarity

The compressor tries quality levels from high to low and keeps the best one that fits under 50 KB. Only if quality alone isn't enough does it shrink the pixel dimensions slightly. The output is always a JPG, the format nearly every Indian exam and government portal requires.

Where a 50 KB limit is common

Exact limits change with every notification, so always check the official instructions for your exam or portal before uploading.

  • Passport-size photos for SSC, UPSC, IBPS, NTA (NEET, JEE, CUET) and state PSC forms
  • Scholarship portals and university admission forms
  • Online KYC photo uploads

Before you upload

  • Crop to the required shape first (passport photos are usually taller than wide)
  • Use a plain light background and even lighting
  • Check whether the portal also asks for exact pixel dimensions or a date on the photo
  • Keep the original — compress again with a different target if the portal rejects it
