Hello,

The eligibility criteria of CDS for various posts in Indian Defence Services has been mentioned below;

Indian Military Academy:

  • Passed graduation in any discipline from a recognized university
  • Age limit to be between 19 to 24 years along with unmarried status

Air Force Academy:

  • Passed bachelor's degree in engineering  or bachelor's degree in any discipline from a recognized university with physics and mathematics at 10+2 level
  • Age limit to be between 19 to 24 years along with unmarried status.

Indian Naval Academy:

  • Passed bachelor's degree in engineering from any recognized university
  • Age limit to be between 19 to 24 years along with unmarried status.

Officer's Training Academy(Men):

  • Candidates need to pass graduation in any discipline from a recognized university,
  • Age limit to be between 19 to 25 years along with unmarried status.

It doesn't matter whether you have a general degree course or a specialized course at graduation level, if you fall within the age bracket of the post then you're eligible for IMA and OTA, for the other two posts the requirements in terms of educational qualifications are different which you don't fulfill, hence not eligible to apply for the same, explore more detailed information regarding this by visiting our page at https://competition.careers360.com/articles/cds-eligibility-criteria
