To get the permanent commission in defence service, candidates can appear and qualify in NDA or CDS examination.

Both the examination is conducted by UPSC. Since you have completed your bachelor degree you are eligible to appear in CDS examination.

The required minimum educational qualification to appear in examination is that candidate must have passed bachelor degree in any discipline.

The age limit is 19-24 years ( for Indian Army ).

The examination is conducted in two stages as Written and SSB. Candidates after qualifying in both stages will be eligible for final recruitment.

For detail information about examination visit at www.upsc.gov.in.

First thing I would like to let you know that students joining Indian defense services through NDA ( National Defense Academy ) or CDS ( Combined Defense Services ) by qualifying their respective entrance examinations are rewarded Permanent Commission irrespective of their stream of academics.

And so even having completed your Class 12th with PCB group you are eligible for your recruitment as permanent commission in Indian Army if you manage to qualify NDA entrance examination or CDS entrance examination once you complete your graduation degree.
