    According to your documents, at 23 years and 5 months old, you meet the age criteria for both the Indian Military Academy (IMA) and Officers' Training Academy (OTA) through the CDS2 examination.the official age limits are 

    IMA: Unmarried male candidates born between July 2,2001, and July 1,2006.

    OTA: Unmarried male candidates born between July 2,2000, and July 1,2006.

    Since eligibity is based on date of birth mentioned on the documents, age 22 years doesn't affect your application.
