Hello,

To be eligible for NDA 2 in 2025 , a candidate must be born between July 2, 2006, and January 1, 2009 (as per the usual age criteria).

Since you were born on December 13, 2006 , you fall within this range , so yes, you are eligible for NDA 2 in 2025.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

No, you will not be eligible for both the NDA exams in 2026 .

For the NDA exam, you need to be between 16.5 and 19.5 years old. If your date of birth is 12th February 2007, you will be 19 years old by February 2026, and you will only be eligible for the NDA exam held in April 2026. You will not be eligible for the NDA exam in September 2026, as you will be over the age limit by then.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

Since you were born on November 17, 2008, you will be eligible for the NDA exam starting when you turn 16 and a half years old. The NDA exam allows candidates between the ages of 16.5 and 19.5 years to apply.

Here's how the attempts work for you:

• The NDA exam is held twice a year, in April and September.

• You will likely be eligible to appear for the exam starting in 2025, when you'll be 16.5 years old.

• You can appear for the exam until you turn 19.5 years old, which will be in November 2027.

This means you have a total of 6 attempts available for NDA, from 2025 to 2027.

Hope it helps !

Dear Aspirant,

Unfortunately, after reviewing your details, you are not eligible to participate in the upcoming NDA 2 exam . You mentioned that your date of birth is August 2, 2006. The NDA 2 examination is scheduled to take place in January 2026, and to qualify for this opportunity, candidates must be within the age range of 16.5 to 19.5 years at the time the course begins.

To clarify, the eligibility criteria specify that candidates must be born between January 2, 2007, and January 1, 2010. Since your birthdate falls outside this specified range, you are unfortunately ineligible for NDA 2.

If you have any further questions or need assistance regarding the eligibility requirements, please feel free to reach out.
