Respected Sir/Madam, I am studying in 10th standard with CBSE stream. I am preparing for the Board exam. My dream is to join Indian Air Force. So, please help me to know that what percentage is required in 10th standard with CBSE Board to join Indian Air Force?

In order to join Indian Air Force, the candidate has to appear in NDA examination that is conducted by UPSC twice in a year in the month of April and September.
Only those candidates are eligible to appear in this examination who have completed their 12th standard with PCM from recognised board with minimum 60% marks.

Let me tell you that you are not eligible to apply for Air Force only after completing 10th board.
You have to complete 12th first.
Most important thing is that you have to complete 12th from Science stream having PCM as main subject from 60% aggregate.
Age criteria- 16.5 years to 19.5 years.

Yes, you are eligible to appear in entrance examination for Indian Air Force recruitment.

NDA is National Defence Academy and examination is conducted by UPSC twice in a year for selection as an officer.

The minimum required qualification is that candidate must have passed or appearing for 12th board examination with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as main paper. The age limit is 16.5 - 19.5 years.

No specific percentage in 10th standard is required to join in Indian Air Force. To join Indian Air Force, you have to appear in NDA examination which is conducted by UPSC. To be eligible to appear in NDA examination, you should have passed 12th standard or an equivalent examination from a Government recognised board.
