any way to join indian army after 12th
Yes. There are a few ways to join the Indian Army After 12th. (https://www.indiancombat.com/how-to-join-indian-army-after-12th/)
If you are looking to join the army as a recruit, then you can start looking for advertisements on newspaper.
As per advertisement you can go to recruitment rallies and pass the given tests to join the Indian army.
Other two ways are joining the Indian Army as an officer after your 12th std:
First way is through National Defence Academy
This is one of the most prestigious institutes of the Indian army which builds Officers for the Armed Forces.
You need clear the NDA Exam test and pass SSB test in order to join NDA.
After which you will undergo 3 years of training in NDA and 1 year at IMA. and finally join the army as a Lieutenant.
The other way is through TES Entry
This entry is a direct entry for PCM students which only require to pass the SSB test.
Unlike NDA, which can be given twice a year. TES Entry can be given only once after your 12th std results is announced.
So i would suggest you to write NDA Exam while you are in 12th and also apply for TES Entry after you complete your 12th. As TES Entry has more advantages over NDA. (https://www.indiancombat.com/tes-entry/)
So definitely choose TES Entry over NDA due to the benefits you can get, if you are a PCM student
