dear friend,
My friend you have not mentioned about your qualification.

If you want to join in Army wing through NDA exam then your age should be in between 16.5-19 years.

And if you want to join in army wing after completion of graduation course then you have to appear in CDS exam.
For that your age should be in between 19-24 years.

Now the decision is in your hand.. You decide in which way you want to join in ARMY wing.
