Hello
Yes, you are eligible as per your DOB (26,09,2006) for both exam NDA1 and NDA2 2025. Your age falls between 16.5 to 19.5 years for the NDA Exam. The NDA 1 exam form was released in December 2025, and the NDA 2 exam for released in May 2026. Those students who are born between July 2, 2007 and July 1, 2010, are eligible for the NDA Exam. For more information, you can read the article, which is based on the NDA Eligibility Criteria 2026 , from our official website, careers360.
Thank you.
Hi
No, you are not eligible for the NDA1 Exam because your age does not fall within the requirements (July 2, 2007 and July 1, 2010). So, my suggestion is that you can prepare for the NDA 1 and NDA 2 2027 exam. For the NDA 2027 exam, you are eligible as per your DOB. If you want to prepare for the NEET exam, you can consider our platform, which helps you in your preparation. For more information about the NDA exam, you can read the article NDA Eligibility Criteria 2026.
Thank you.
Hello,
Yes, you are. For both NDA 1 and NDA 2, which are going to be held in 2026.
The eligibility criteria for these are that you should be unmarried and should not exceed the determined age factor (ie, between 16.5 years to 19.5 years).
The candidate should have the maximum qualification of HSC pass or at least an appearing status to be provided. Should belong to Indian Nationality.
Hope it helps. Good luck.
Hello
Your date of birth is 11 May 2007, which is earlier than the allowed range for NDA 1 2026.
The required DOB for that exam is between 2 July 2007 and 1 July 2010.
Because of this, you won’t be eligible for NDA 1 2026.
It’s only the age rule that stops you nothing else.
You can check more details by visiting the link I am attaching below:
Hii,
No, you will not be eligible for the NDA 1 2026 exam because, as you have stated that your date of birth is 19 July 2007, and you do not fit in this range. Being between the range of 16.5 to 19.5 years is not enough. Your date of birth does not come under the mandated date range.
Hope it helps!!!
