There are two major entry points in Indian Navy –
First is - National Defence Academy (NDA) and
Second is - Combined Defence Services Examination (CDS).
To appear in these above mentioned examinations you must have completed your 12th Class or should completed post graduation.
12th pass candidates can apply for NDA while graduates are eligible to appear in CDS.
