No, you can’t apply for NDA at the age of 16. Lower age limit for NDA is 16 ½ years. Those less than 19 years can only apply. Also you can apply for NDA after qualifying 12th. Those who are going to appear for final exam of class 12th can also apply.

Hi,

No, you cannot apply for NDA being 16 years old.

For NDA, you should be atleast 16.5 years old.

You should know the eligibility required for NDA exam.

To be eligible -

You should be 12th pass from a recognied board.

Your age should be between 16.5 years to 19 years.

You should be an unmarried male candidate.


So, you don't fulfill the first two criteria, therefore you cannot apply.

Complete your 12th first and then you will be eligible to apply for NDA.

All the best.

Sorry 16 year old can not apply for NDA examination. You have to wait for some time if you want to apply for NDA examination.

The age limit for NDA examination is 16.5 to 19 years.

So if your age is 16.5 or above then only you can apply for NDA examination.

In addition to above age you also must be unmarried and Indian male citizen.

The educational qualification required for NDA is 10+2 passed from a recognised Board of Education.

If you are willing to join Indian Air Force or Indian Navy then you have to pass 10+2 with physics and mathematics subjects.

The selection will be purely based on merit and you have to perform very well in following examinations:

-Wrtitten Examination

-SSB Interview

-Medical Examination

Hey friend,

You cannot join in NDA with 16 years old as you need to be 16.5 years old at the time of applying for the NDA exam

The age limit for the NDA exam is 16 1/2-19 year of age.

The exam is conducted for candidates to join in defence forces of India and is held every year twice as NDA I and NDA II.

The other qualification which you need to possess in order to apply for the NDA exam are:
  • Nationality

  • Education Qualification
  • Physical Standard

> The candidate appearing for the exam must be a Citizen of India

> Only Unmarried male candidate is eligible for applying for the exam

> The Education qualification for the exam is that the candidate must have completed +2 with a fair percentage

> You need to be Physically fit while appearing for the exam


The candidate who tend to satisfy all these criteira for the exam,is eligible fro applying for the NDA exam

ALL THE BEST

Dear Friend,



According to you , your date of birth is 30/11/1996 , so from this date currently you are just 16 years and 3 months old.

So , you are not eligible for the NDA Exam right now.

This is because the minimum age that you should have to be eligible to appear in the NDA Exam is 16.5 years and currently you are 3 months sort off the minimum age required.

Also currently you are in just 11th standard , so you are ineligible from the minimum educational qualification point of view too.

However , Here i have provided you the full qualifications that you should have so that you can apply for the NDA Exam.

a) You must have completed 12th with PCM from any recognized board.

b) There is no minimum percentage required for this exam.

c) Only male candidates are eligible for this exam as there is no way out for girls to apply for the NDA Exam.

d) Also , the candidates need to be unmarried.

e) You must have Indian Citizenship.

f) You must have maintained a good mental and physical status.

This is the information i have to the best of my knowledge regarding your query. Hope the information will help you to the extent you want.
