No, you are not eligible to apply for IMA just after completion of 12th Class. There is a certain eligibility required in order to be eligible for joining Indian Military Academy.

In order to join Indian Military Academy, you are required to appear in Combined Defence Services Examination (CDSE) that is conducted by Union Public Service Commission (UPSC). There are several wings under CDSE recruitment and they are,

>> Indian Military Academy

>> Naval Academy

>> Officer Training Academy

>> Air Force Academy

In order to join IMA, you are required to pass "Bachelor Degree" from a recognized university. So I suggest you to first complete Graduation in order to be eligible.

In order to join Indian Military Academy you must complete your bachelor's degree from a recognized college. Your age should be in between 19 to 23 years. You must be an Indian citizen and should be physically fit.

With this eligibility you have to appear for CDS (Combined Defence Services) examination. The selection will based on the performance in the examination followed by physical test and personal interview.
