Sir, I am pursuing my 12th from stream Commerce with Mathematics though I have Mathematics but not Physics. So am I eligible for NDA exam for IAF? And still able to get a job for a Fighter Pilot in future?

Having opted for commerce stream for your Class 12th academics, you are not eligible for joining Flying branch of Indian Air force through any entry whether it is through NDA or CDS or AFCAT, as for joining Indian Air force Flying branch, one is required to have pursued Physics and Mathematics at Class 12th level.

But, even having opted for commerce stream for your Class 12th studies, you are eligible for appearing in NDA (National Defense Academy) examination for joining its Indian Army.
