At the equilibrium states.

Explanation:

Entropy

Entropy is a measure of randomness. This is extensive property of thermodynamic systems. The concept of entropy originates from the second law of thermodynamics.

As we know that

Entropy of universe = Entropy of system + Entropy of surrounding.

So when universe reaches at the equilibrium states then the universe attained its maximum value of entropy.
