Girls are not eligible for the National Defence Academy examination.
As through NDA candidate will get the jobs that are quite difficult for
the girls. I mean to say that ground duty jobs are not given to the
candidates through National Defence Academy examination.

Thats why girls are not eligible to apply for the National Defence Academy
examination. You can apply for the Indian Army, Air force and Navy through Combined defence service examination.
You can apply for this examination after the completion of your engineering.
This examination is conducted by the UPSC twice in a year.

The eligibility criteria required for the Combined defence service examination is given below:

Education Qualification
Candidate should be graduate in any discipline from the recognized university.
Those appeared in the final year examination are also eligible for the CDSE examination.

Age Limit

Indian Military Academy 19-23 Years
Air Force Academy 19-23 Years
Naval Academy 19-22 Years
Officers’ Training Academy 19-25 Years

NDA stands for National Defence Academy and is conducted by the upsc twice a year.
The Basic eligibility criteria are as follows :

(1)Only Unmarried Male candidate are allowed.

(2) Educational qualification
Generally 12th pass with mathematics ,physics and chemistry from a recognized board or university.

(3)Age Criteria

Because the training given to successfull NDA candidates are very tough,Girls are not allowed for the NDA but they can join either Indian Army,Indian Navy,Indian Air Force through various technical and non technical SSC.
