Important Stream-Mismatch Rule

Any variation between the Engineering stream name on the:

• Degree certificate/marksheet, and
• Online application

can result in cancellation of candidature.

Minimum Physical Standards

Before joining the training academy, candidates must meet the following minimum physical standards:

Selection Process / Recruitment Process

Step 1 — Shortlisting

Applications are shortlisted by Integrated HQ of MoD (Army) based on:

• Vacancy-to-call-up ratio
• Engineering discipline/stream
• Cumulative percentage of marks
• Stream-wise cut-off

The Army reserves the right to shortlist applications without assigning a reason.

Step 2 — Selection Centre & SSB Date

Shortlisted candidates must log in and select:

• SSB date
• SSB centre

Availability is on a First Come, First Serve basis.

Once selected, the SSB centre/date normally cannot be changed.

Step 3 — SSB Interview

SSB centres:

• Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh
• Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh
• Bengaluru, Karnataka
• Jalandhar, Punjab

Call-up letters are issued through the registered email ID and SMS.

SSB Procedure

• Two-stage selection process
• Candidates clearing Stage 1 proceed to Stage 2
• Candidates failing Stage 1 are returned the same day
• SSB interview duration: maximum 5 days
• Recommended candidates proceed for medical examination.

Step 4 — Medical Examination

Recommended candidates undergo medical examination.

SSB medical examination validity is 270 days from the Special Medical Board (SMB) to PCTA joining date.

Candidates who already underwent Army SSB medical and were declared Medically Fit may not need another medical examination if the applicable 270-day condition is satisfied.

Step 5 — Merit List

Merit is prepared Engineering stream/subject-wise based on SSB marks.

Tie-breaking:

1.      Older candidate by age gets higher position.

2.      If SSB marks and age are both the same, higher degree percentage gets higher position.

3.      Higher educational qualifications and previous performance have no role in merit.

Step 6 — Joining

Candidates in the merit list, within stream-wise vacancies and medically fit, are issued joining letters for pre-commission training at IMA Dehradun, subject to fulfilling all eligibility conditions.
