Dear..

You are in Diploma that means you are already a 12th pass candidate and hence if you clear the eligibility criteria then you can go for NDA but i think you will loose the eligibility at age limit.

Eligibility :-

1. 16.5-19 years of age
2. No relaxation
3. Only Males candidate can apply
4. Only Indian citizen are eligible
5. Only unmarried candidate are eligible
6. Maths and Physics should be compulsory subject
7. NDA is conducted twice in a year
See if you are completing the criteria then you can still go for NDA otherwise you next option is open to you.

CDS :- CDS is also same as NDA. Here also candidates are also recruited as officer in Indian Armed forces. But you said you have completed your diploma so its better you complete your degree first as it is the most important criteria to be fulfilled.

Other criteria :
age= 19-24
Indian Citizen
Graduation from a recognized university

Hope it will help

Cheers...!!!
