What is your stream in 12th? You can apply in the Indian navy if you have Physics,Chemistry & Maths as your subjects in 12th. When you check the advertisement of the Indian Navy for 12th standard they ask for PCM & for graduate level either B.Tech or B.E. In a very rare case they ask to apply for a commerce candidates. So,check the details before applying.

Can V take commerce after 10 and do the NDA late
It's it necessary/compulsory to tke PCM
