The three branches of the Air force are
  • Flying,
  • Ground duty
  • and Technical branch.

The officer cadre provides opportunities for men with 10+2 / Intermediate (only in the Flying branch),

Quote:
graduates (all three branches)
,
engineers (all three branches)
and postgraduates (all branches except the Flying branch) in the various positions.

Women with graduate (all three branches), engineering (all three branches) and post graduate degrees (all branches except the Flying branch) have openings as an Officer in the Air force.

As you can see "graduates (all three branches)" so you can apply for all the branches so for openings you can get about the notification of exam either in Employement newspaper or in

Thumbs up Re: Can a commerce student apply for IAF?

Yes after completing your 12Th examination you are eligible for IAF but only for "Flying Branch". And to join Flying Branch you need to appear for the UPSC examination, It means you have to apply for NDA examination and after completing 12Th you are eligible for NDA, But for this your age should between 21 to 30 years and the final year candidates may also eligible for the same. But please make sure that you have completed your 12Th with Physics and Mathematics. Because only science stream candidates may apply for this Branch, the Examination was held 2 times in a year and eligible candidates may fill the application form Online by visit the UPSC website. So, If you are Interest then please apply for this examination next year and for complete details please check the official website OR check the employment newspaper.

friend i'm not cent percent sure but for iaf u should have physics and mathematics as compulsory subjects in your +2. since i predict that being a commerce student it is not possible for u to have physics so u cannot apply for iaf as such. but i would suggest u to go through the nda and cds guidelines avialable on upsc.gov.in

With 12th in commerce stream, you can only apply for the post for army wing of national defense academy through NDA Exam. But you cannot join Air Force. Generally Air Force requires to have completed the 12th standard with physics and mathematics as background. You can get the further guidelines through any of the educational consultancy regarding the procedure to enter into the Air Force.
