    Yes you can join Indian Air Force through UPSC .

    You can apply for CDS and you can give your option 1 as Air force .

    You will go through CDS Examination and a SSB interview to get into airforce .

    CDS Exam :
    you have English , GK , and Mathematics paper in CDS.
    SSB:
    A 5 Day interview where you need to show OLQ's (Officer Like qualities).

    For pilot in air force you need to go through PAT (Pilot aptitude test) , which will be conducted alongwith SSB .

    Apart from UPSC , you can also give AFCAT which held twice every year.

    Good Luck ..!!

    Dear aspirant ,

    You should have maths and physics as main subjects in your Graduation if you want to become a pilot in Indian Air Force.


    I think B.tech have these subjects hence you are definitely eligible for pilot in Air force.


    But you are Graduate hence you are eligible to apply for Army through CDS exam. You can also apply for AFCAT exam if you willing to join Air force in flying


    You will have to clear an objective type paper and SSB interview to become an Army officer.


    BEST OF LUCK....
