Hi dear candidate,
You are eligible for NDA Air force and Navy wing even though you have subjects from two different marksheets but having qualified in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics is all you need. Hence, you are eligible but also check other criteria as well like age, physical requirements etc.
Kindly refer to the link below:
NDA Eligibility Criteria 2026 - Age Limit, Qualification, Nationality, Attempt Limit

Yes, with a 12th certificate in PCB and a mathematics certificate from NIOS, you are eligible for National Defense Academy (NDA) air force or navy wing. The NIOS certificate is recognized by NDA and both air force and navy wing requires Physics and mathematics.
Thank You.
Hello
Yes, you can be eligible for the NDA Navy and Air Force wings.
You have done PCB from a state board and Maths from NIOS, which is fine.
The key is that your Maths from NIOS must be at the 12th (Senior Secondary) level.
UPSC accepts NIOS if it's a recognized board and the subject level is correct.
Since you’ve studied both Physics and Maths at the 10+2 level, that meets the criteria. Just ensure your documents clearly reflect this during verification
