This final merit list signifies the dedication and hard work of the candidates, reflecting their commitment to serving the nation. They now move on to receive rigorous training at the respective academies to become future officers of the Indian Armed Forces.

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has announced the final merit list for the Combined Defence Services Examination (I), 2024, which took place in April 2024. A total of 237 candidates (158 for Indian Military Academy, 44 for Indian Naval Academy, and 35 for Air Force Academy) have been recommended for admission to their respective courses after successfully passing the UPSC exam and the subsequent Service Selection Board (SSB) interviews conducted by the Ministry of Defence.

Admission Details and Course Allocations

The final recommendations are for the following courses:

  • Indian Military Academy (IMA), Dehradun: 158th (DE) Course
  • Indian Naval Academy (INA), Ezhimala, Kerala: Executive Branch (General Service)/Hydro
  • Air Force Academy (AFA), Hyderabad: Pre-Flying Training Course, No. 217 F(P) Course

The Selection Process

The selection process for these 237 candidates involved multiple stages. Initially, 1954 candidates qualified in the written exam for IMA, 586 for INA, and 628 for AFA. Only those who cleared the SSB interview, a rigorous process assessing their leadership, psychological, and physical fitness, were recommended for final admission.

CDS 1 2024 Merit List

It’s important to note that the merit list is purely based on performance in the written exam and SSB interview. The results of the medical examination are not factored into this list, as it is prepared before the medical tests. Verification of the candidates’ educational qualifications and date of birth is still ongoing, and thus, the recommendation remains provisional.

Candidates are required to submit their original documents, along with attested copies, to the appropriate authorities (Army, Naval, or Air Headquarters) to complete the verification process. Any changes in personal information, like address, should be promptly communicated to the relevant headquarters.
