What happens after NDA 1 result 2025?

The NDA recruitment process is divided into two stages — the written examination and the SSB interview. Results are declared separately for each stage. Candidates who have cleared the written exam will now move on to the SSB interview round. They will be able to select their preferred interview date and time and download their call-up letter from the respective service selection board websites.
During the SSB interview, candidates are assessed on their personality, aptitude, leadership qualities, and overall suitability for a career in the Indian Armed Forces. The interview process typically spans five days.
According to previous data, approximately 4 to 5 lakh candidates register for the NDA exam annually, but only around 7,000 to 8,000 candidates clear the written test, reflecting a success rate of just 2-3%.
By successfully clearing the NDA selection process, candidates can realize their ambition of serving the nation by joining the Indian Army, Indian Naval Academy, or Air Force Wings. This year, UPSC aims to fill a total of 406 vacancies across these prestigious branches.
