No, 2nd year B.Tech degree holder candidates are not eligible for Indian Air Force. But final year of B.Tech degree holder candidates can apply here through CDS exam.

CDS stands for Combined Defence Service exam.

Eligibility criteria:-

Indian Air force academy: You should have completed engineering graduation or B.Sc with physics, mathematics from a recognized university.

Age Criteria:-

Air Force Academy: - 19 to 23 years

No, you can not apply for the Indian Airforce while pursuing bachelor's degree in technology. There are several entrance exams for entry into Indian Airforce at bachelor's degree level.

1. Combined Defense Services.

2. Airforce Common Admission Test.

For both the entrance exams both unmarried male and female candidates can apply for the exam but minimum qualification is that candidate must have done bachelor's degree or in final year of bachelor's degree. So, you can apply for the exam while pursuing final year of mechanical engineering.

The age limit for Indian Airforce academy is 19-23 years under CDS and 19-24 years under AFCAT exam. Till then work on the areas like general knowledge and awareness, mathematics, aptitude, reasoning and English to clear these exams in first attempt.
