    Re: What is the eligibility criteria and procedure for CDS exam?

    You need to apply for CDS in final year or afterwards.As you are from commerce you will not be eligible for Airforce and Navy through CDS.You will need to apply for IMA and OTA which requires graduation from any stream.The age limit for IMA is 19-24years and OTA is 19-25years.CDS is conducted twice a year by UPSC.You can check the website of UPSC to know about the next notification of CDS.The form is filled online and you can get every other details in the notification published by UPSC.Check the examination calendar on the website of UPSC to know whenever the notifications comes out.
