Viceroys were the colonial governors who ruled as representatives of the British monarch
Think of a term we use -- Vice President. The Vice President will serve as the representative of the President for a number of state functions. A "viceroy" is a representative of someone royal. The Viceroy and Governor-General of India (the official title) was the British crown's head of administration in India.
Civil servants were officials in India who dealt with public issues and oversaw British government activities in India.
The India Civil Service (sometimes also known as the Imperial Civil Service) were the officials who carried out government administration in India. In time, some of the members of the India Civil Service were Indians in British employ, but the vast majority of officials and highest ranking officials were British men.
