Hello Rabina,
Hope you're doing well.
According to the rules, For the CDS II examination, the candidate must be born between July 1994 to July 1999. The educational qualifications required for, candidates interested in the Indian Military and the Air Force is a degree (10+2) from any recognized university. For the Indian Navy, an engineering degree from a recognizes university is sought. But still I suggest you to read Official notifications.
Thank you, Feel free to ask.
All the best.
