Hi aspirant, since you want to join Indian Army so as if you are in 3rd year than let me tell you that for that you have to give one exam named as CDS(Combined Defense Services) which you will be eligible in your final year or else if you are interested in any of the other wing of defense services than you can also give AFCAT exam for Indian Airforce.

Thank You.
