Hello Samridhi

Officers’ Training Academy (SSC Women Non-Technical Course)

19- 25 Years

The candidate belonging to age group of 19- 25 Years i.e. they are born not earlier than January 2, 1995 and not later than January 1, 2001.

So, i think you are eligible as your dob is 11/07/1995.

The UPSC cut off for 2019 was 134 to get into CDS IMA and 95 to get into CDS OTA. Therefore while chances of you getting into IMA is less, you have a great  scope in OTA. Thus go for OTA and you have also scope in other firms.
