How to join Indian Navy as a Woman?

Women were only admitted to the Armed Forces Medical Corps until 1992. The Navy began inducting women as Short Service Commissioned Officers in specific branches of the Navy in July 1992. Among the Indian Armed Forces, the Indian Navy is a well-balanced force that has always put its best foot forward to improve the role of women in the Navy. Women are currently inducted as officers into the following six branches of the Navy: ATC, Observer, Law, Logistics, Education, and Naval Architecture. In addition, the government has approved a Permanent Commission (PC) for women in the Education, Law, and Naval Architecture branches upon completion of their SSC tenure, based on merit and vacancy. While many female candidates are frequently confused by their eligibility, we have decided to highlight the most significant information on women's military service.
