For NDA preparation, you should prefer the NCERT books of class 11th and 12th, especially for mathematics. For the general ability test, you should prefer the 6th to 10th social science books which will be very helpful in cracking the general ability test. Other than this books, you should prefer the Arihant Pathfinder, Chapter wise solutions or you can go for Upkar publication books. -
There are many books available in the market like Arihant Pathfinder, Upkar books, previous year question papers and many more.

Yes, go ahead Lonkar. You have decided a good career which can change your life completely and you can see your dream coming true. You better refer to "pathfinder" for NDA by Arihant which will be a better option for you as it covers all the topics effectively.
You should start preparing from class 11th onwards as it contains other subjects like social science, english and general knowledge. Best of luck.
