Hi Simran!

NCC cadets get the certificate after the completion of each stage of training. These are: NCC 'A' Certificate, NCC 'B' Certificate and NCC 'C ' Certificate. And among these, NCC 'C' certificate is the most significant.

If you have NCC C Certificate then you can reach directly to SSB interview round followed by medical examination. You do not need to appear for written exam. But to avial the benefits of NCC C Certoficate in CDS recruitment, you should have a graduation degree from a recognized university with alteast 50% maks. Apart from being exempted to write exam, there is one more benefit which is reserved seats in defence sector for NCC cadets in IMA. But for this, you need to clear SSB round first.

If you wish to write the exam anyway, then you might also get benefits in marks because of NCC certificates. Moreover, there are also NCC special entry jobs which you can apply for.

Thankyou!
