NDA Exam is going to be conducted by UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) every year.

One can join to
-Army wing
-Navy wing
-Air Force wing by cracking this NDA Exam.

The minimum academic qualification with which a candidate can appear for NDA Exam is by finishing 10+2 with any of the stream.

But in order to join Navy and Air Force, one must have Physics and Mathematics as the subjects in 10+2.

You can appear for NDA Exam if you fall under the required age criteria. In order to be eligible for NDA Exam, one should be in the age group of 16 1/2 years to 19 years.

To the best of my knowledge, I think you are avove 19 years as you have completed your Graduation. If you are below 19 years, then you are eligible.

Here is the official website for UPSC. You can find updated information on NDA Exam in this website.

Hi friend,



You can apply for NDA after graduation, but you have to fulfill the NDA Exam criteria.
NDA stands for National Defence Academy.
NDA Exam is conducted by UPSC twice a year.

>>The candidate must complete his 12th class from recognized board.

>>The age of candidate must be between 16.5 to 19 years.

>>The candidate must be unmarried male.

>>The candidate must be Indian.

If you fulfill these above criteria only then you will be eligible for applying for NDA.

But after graduation, I advice you to apply for CDS Exam.
CDS stands for Combined Defence Services.
CDS Exam is conducted by UPSC twice a year.

>>The candidate must complete his/her graduation degree from any recognized university.
>>The age limit of the candidate must be from 19 to 24 years for Indian Army, 19 to 23 for Indian Air Force and 19 to 22 years for Indian Navy.

I hope the information will help you...

Best of luck.......

Hello dear,

No! your not eligible even though you may completed your 12th with PCM and 60% marks.

If your Graduated now, your Age must be above 19 years and for NDA examination one must be:

16 1/2 to 19 years of age.

After Graduation you should go for CDS / AFCAT or Other notification of defence being published in newspapers and online which offer both Permanent commission and Short Service Commission.


CDS- Combined Defence Service is a very common exam after graduation which need a elementary Maths, English & general Knowledge .

AFCAT is for AIR FORCE.

If your not from Technical background

You can only apply for Ground duty or Flying Branch in AFCAT.

Technical is only for B tech Students.

Go for these exams.

NDA - National Defence Academy, the entrance exam for which is conducted by UPSC twice every year for an entry in to Indian Army, Navy and Air Force wing of NDA.

The eligible candidate must be an Indian unmarried Male having either appear for the final 12th exam or pass in any stream from a recognised Board within the age of 16.5 to 19 years with good Physical and Mental health.

So NDA is only meant for 12th candidate and a Graduate Male candidate can apply for NDA if he fulfills the above mentioned eligibility criteria for NDA, but he can apply for CDS(Combined Defence Service) exam after Graduation.

10+2 passed with age between 16.5 to 19 years are eligible for NDA Examination.

There is no need of Graduation for NDA Examination. If you have completed Graduation and your age is between 16.5 to 19 years then also you can apply for NDA Examination.


But if your age is not according to NDA notification after Graduation then there is no chance of applying for NDA.

After Graduation you can also apply for CDS Examination if your age is between 19 to 25 years.

To become an Officer in Indian Defence you have to undergo examination which will have some obstacles in the form of :

-Written Exam

-SSB

-Medical Examination

If you pass the examination with merit then there is very good chance for you to become an officer .

Hi

Before I answer your question I would have to give you a brief intro about what NDA is and what are the pre-requisites which are there to be fulfilled by the candidates who wish to apply for this esteem examination.

NDA - National Defense Academy..

This is an Entrance conducted by the UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) every year in the months of April and August. It is basically conducted to take intake for the three wings of Defense which are Army, Navy and Air Force. So for each of them they have a different and a PARTICULAR requirement.

Basic Eligibility Criteria for the NDA Examination is that you should be an unmarried Male candidates as females are not allowed to appear for this exam. Your age should be within 16.5 to 19 years. You should be atleast 12th pass/appeared and should be physically and mentally fit.

Also if we talk about the Educational Qualification which is needed, ONLY SCIENCE students can apply for the 3 wings of Defense, whereas the Commerce and Arts can only apply for the Army. This is also a clause which is often ignored at times by the applicants during applying and they get rejected for this reason.

So now as your query, You are in your final year of graduation which means you are over 20 years of age. However if you read in the eligibility conditions, ONLY candidates in 16.5 to 19 years age range can apply. So I am really sorry to say that you CANNOT apply for NDA 1 nor NDA 2..

You can though apply for the CDS - Combined Defense Services and its really for those who are graduates or in their final years. Click Here to know more about it..

Hope this helps
All the best
Regards
RANJEET
