Our Armed Forces have started inducting women into the forces since 1992, thus giving the Women an equal and fair chance to be a part of this prestigious institution. This article aims at making all of you especially our lady aspirants familiar with the types of Entry through which they can become an officer in the Indian Army. The commission in which ladies are commissioned in Army is SSC or Short Service Commission, they are trained at OTA Chennai, OTA stands for Officer’s Training Academy. Recently, women are getting permanent commissions in the Indian Army.

The procedure for becoming a lady officer in the army is the same as the followed for the men. The candidates have to clear a written exam CDSE in this case, or there is direct shortlisting on the basis of some cutoff percentage, like in the SSC-Tech and NCC Entries. After getting selected in the initial process i.e. written or getting shortlisted, SSB calls are made. The women are called for SSB(Service Selection Board) at various selection Centers of the Indian Army, and after getting recommended in the SSB, which is gaining a two-stage process where after clearing stage one you are advanced for Stage II, a medical examination is done of successful candidates.
