The Indian Army has officially announced that the Online Common Entrance Exam (CEE) for Agniveer and JCOs/Other Ranks (OR) recruitment for the year 2025-26 will be conducted from 30 June to 10 July 2025. This written examination is a crucial first step for all candidates aspiring to join the Indian Army under the Agnipath scheme or through regular JCO/OR recruitment channels.
Candidates who have successfully registered for the recruitment cycle and have completed the application process are advised to prepare well in advance, as the online exam window will remain open for a span of ten days. The Indian Army has taken this digital approach to ensure greater transparency and wider access to aspirants across India. The online mode of exam not only reduces logistical challenges but also improves the overall speed of the recruitment process.
This written examination will be followed by the next phases of recruitment, including the Physical Fitness Test (PFT) and Medical Examination, for those who qualify the CEE. The detailed instructions, including exam center, timing, and admit card release date, will be shared with registered candidates through their email and official portal logins in the coming days.
The Indian Army has clearly mentioned that only those candidates who appear for the Online CEE during this scheduled period will be eligible to move ahead in the selection process. Candidates must carry valid ID proofs and follow all exam-day instructions strictly to avoid disqualification.
All aspirants are strongly advised to stay updated through official Army channels and not to rely on any unofficial sources for exam updates or guidance. Preparing according to the officially prescribed syllabus and previous year patterns will help in clearing the exam successfully.
