Utpal,
The official mode of admission is as follows
- One needs to take JEE (Main) exam and separately apply for AIT Pune counselling .
- Admissions are on the basis of rank in JEE (Main) .
- Note: Admission to Army Institute of Technology is for the children of eligible serving Army personnel, eligible ex Army personnel and war widows of the Army only.
So as you can see that oly children of army personnel and, ex army personnel and war widows .
So I don't think one can get admission if he doesn't belong to that category.
