While this TES 56 notification offers a direct route to a commission in the Indian Army, competition is stiff as only 90 posts are available. A common mistake candidates make is failing to check their PCM aggregate precisely as per their Class 12 board marks; ensure you meet the 60% threshold strictly. Note that JEE Main scores are mandatory, and the shortlisting process relies heavily on the cut-off determined by the Army, so do not wait for the final day to apply to avoid technical server issues.
