You cannot join NDA (at Khadakwasla, Pune) immediately after 10th. UPSC clearly requires you to have passed or be appearing in 12th grade (ages 16.5–19.5) for eligibility — 10th completion is not enough.

The overall fee of B.Tech at National Defence Academy (NDA) in Pune will be around INR 55,560.

The support is set up for cadets to cover their costs of living while they are training. No tuition, no room and board charges: the fee structure is based ultimately on those designed to provide cadets with as few distractions from their rigorous academic schedule (or military training) due to financial issues.
