Re: Can i appear for NDA exam if I am 18 years old? Do I satisfy the age limit for NDA?

I am sorry to say that you are not eligible to apply for NDA Exam as you have already completed 20 year of age.

In order to be eligible for NDA Exam, one should possess an age between 16.5 years to 19 years.

No relaxation is there in upper age limit for the candidates of any category.

NDA stands for National Defence Academy. Every year this exam is being conducted 2 times in a year to recruit the candidates into following defence services
Army wing
Navy wing
Air Force wing

As you have completed your 12th class in PCM, you are eligible to apply for any of the wing out of the above mentioned.

You did not mention whether you are pursuing Graduation or not.

You can also make entry into defence services soon after the completion of your Graduation.

For that you should crack CDS (Combined Defence Services Exam). Better you can apply for this Exam.

Wish you all the best.

NDA exam is the entrance exam conducted by UPSC.

Age limit for this exam is :

lower age limit :16 1/2 years
upper age limit :19 years

So , since you are 18 years of age ,you satisfy the age limit criteria .
But another criteria to appear for NDA exam is that the candidate should be unmarried male .
As you have'nt mentioned your sex and marital status , I can't assure you whether you are eligible for NDA exam or not .

Re: Can i appear for NDA exam if I am 18 years old? Do I satisfy the age limit for NDA?

Dear Friend,

The NDA Exam is one of the two UPSC Exams conducted twice every year for the selection of candidates in the different wings of Indian Defense :

1) Indian Army

2) Indian Navy

3) Indian Air Force

The NDA Exam is conducted twice as NDA-I & NDA-II respectively in the months of April 2013 and August 2013.

The NDA April 2013 has already been conducted so now we have to check that whether you are eligible for the August 2013 Exam or not.

The Eligibility Criteria Required for NDA Exam are :

* You must have passed 12th with PCM from any recognized board.

* Your age should lie in between 16.5-19 years.

* You must be a male candidate and also unmarried.

* Girls cannot sit for the NDA Exam.

* You must be an Indian Citizen.

* You must be physically and mentally fit.

Also , your date of birth is 19 April , 1993 which means right now your age is over 20 years which easily makes you ineligible for the NDA Exam.


So , if you are really interested in joining Indian Defense , then it will be better for you to go for the Combined Defense Services Exam which too is conducted twice every year by the Union Public Service Commission.

But keep in mind that the minimum educational qualification required to appear for the CDS Exam is Graduation in any stream from any recognized university.

This is the information i have to the best of my knowledge regarding your query. Hope the information will help you to the extent you want.
