As per your Date of Birth, you are eligible to appear for the NDA exam conducted by the Union Public Service Commission.
You were even eligible to write the upcoming NDA exam but the last date of submission of application forms are over and therefore, you will have to apply for the NDA II of this year which is supposed to be conducted on 19.08.2012 and the application form for the same will be issued from 05.05.2012.

As far as the basic eligibility criteria for the NDA exam is concerned, you must have qualified higher secondary examination with Physics and Maths, in order to apply for the Air Force and Naval wing of NDA but if you want to apply for the Army wing, you may write the exam without having Physics and Maths in your higher secondary level.

hi!!

NDA Exam is conducted by the upsc(union public service commission) twice every year for the three wings of INDIAN army,namely
  1. ARMY WING
  2. NAVAL ACADEMY
  3. AIRFORCE WING
now this exam is conducted twice every year as NDA-1 and NDA-2.sohere is the eligibility crieteria for you to know whether you are eligible to sit or not


EIGIBIITY CRITERIA
  • The candidate should have age b/w 16.5 to 19 years toapply for this examination this is known as age criteria.
  • you should be having Physics/chemistry & mathematics in your XII exams if that is the case then you can appy for all the three branches
  • if you are only passed in your XII class from any branch then only eligible for the Army wing
  • you should be physically fit and sound

you are eligible to sit in NDA-2 and not NDA -1 .this is because of the reason that you have only completed 16 years on 14'th january 2012.that means you are not having the required 16.5 minimum age.

hence you can only sit in NDA-2 of this year



hope this helped you.......

Your decision to choose the services as an option for career is appreciated. NDA entrance exam is one exam which almost all the aspirants for defence services would be writing. The authorities are very strict with the rules, esp. the age. The present public release by the authorities mentions that the candidates born between 2nd January 1994 and 1st July 1996 can apply for the exam. So as per this release you are eligible in writing the NDA exam. 2 Exams are conducted every year by UPSC. You can attempt this exam till you turn 19 years of age.
