    hi
    the minimum age for giving the NDA exam is 16.5 and the maximum age is 19 years.
    The minimum and maximum age for giving the CDS exam is 19 and 23 respectively.
    And for the upsc civil services exam, the minimum age is 21 years and the maximum age is 30 years.
    However in the upsc civil services examination, a relaxation of 3 and 5 years is given to the obc and the sc/st candidates respectively.
    But there is no age relaxation for any caste

    Friend, please note that# Presently your age is within the required age limit for IMA (Indian Military Academy).# The age limit fixed for the IMA is 19 years to 24 years.# If you will be able to complete the graduation degree in the year 2014, then you will be remain eligible for the IMA. # Next year (in the year 2014), your age would be around 22 years which is two years shorter than the maximum age of 24 required for joining IMA.# For joining the IMA, you have to apply for CDS Examination. And CDS Examinations are held twice in a year by UPSC.# For information regarding CDS Examination can be obtained from the official website of UPSC i.e. http://upsc.gov.in

    Next CDS exams would be held on 8th September 2013

    For this exam for the IMA wing candidates who were born between 2nd July 1990 to 1st July 1995.
    For the OTA exams candidates who were born between 2nd July 1989 to 1st July 1995

    So yes definitely you would be able to apply for the CDS exams in the year 2014
    CDS exams would be held two times in the year 2014.

    So you should prepare for the exams and when notifications comes out next year you can apply
