Join as an officer in Indian Air Force. It is required that you have to play year the NDA exam but for the living there is 2 exams. One is the NDA exam and another one is the B tech 10+2 TES Entry. You are aware about NDA let me tell you about 10 + 2 TES entry. The eligibility criteria for a candidate is that your aggregate score in PCM in 12th should be 70% or above. And you should have appeared the JEE Mains exam. After graduation there is lots of chances. Like UES Entry, CDS, AFCAT, SSC TGC etc. You can opt for be after completing graduation.

As an officer in Indian Air Force, you have to complete your graduation first, but for Navy, there are technical entries which are totally based on class 12th percentage and PCM is mandatory in it.

You can join executive branch of Indian Navy directly after +2 stage PCM based on marks score in +2 stage. In case you do not qualify after +2 stage you can try joining Indian Air Force and Indian Navy after graduation degrees in Science or engineering.
