I am 09/11/2007 born so I am eligible for giving nda 1 2026 exam

Hello Rishika,

As per the eligibility criteria for the NDA (National Defence Academy) exam, candidates must be between 16.5 and 19.5 years old on the first day of the month in which the exam is conducted. For NDA 1, 2026, the exam will likely be held in April 2026, so you would need to check your age eligibility at that time.

Since you were born on November 9, 2007, you will be 18 years old by April 2026, which makes you eligible for the NDA 1, 2026 exam, provided you meet the other required conditions.

Make sure to confirm the exact dates for the NDA 1 2026 exam and age limit through the official UPSC notification when it is released.
