Defence & Agniveer government exams

Officer entries to the Army, Navy and Air Force come through UPSC's NDA and CDS exams and the Air Force's own AFCAT, each followed by a multi-day SSB or AFSB interview. Soldiers, sailors and airmen now join as Agniveers for four years under the Agnipath scheme, through an online entrance test, a physical fitness test and a medical run separately by each service. The Indian Coast Guard recruits Naviks and Yantriks through CGEPT and Assistant Commandants through CGCAT. Each entry below is built from the latest official notification we could open.
