Kota Rankers Point (KRP), Pune, offers a structured preparation pathway for students aspiring to join the National Defence Academy (NDA) and pursue a career as an officer in the Indian Armed Forces. Our two-year integrated programme combines Class 11th and 12th board preparation with NDA written-examination coaching, physical fitness training, Ground Training and SSB interview preparation.

About KRP’s NDA Preparation Programme
Preparing for the National Defence Academy requires more than clearing a written examination. Aspirants need a strong academic foundation, consistent physical fitness, awareness of national and international affairs, communication skills, confidence, teamwork and the ability to perform under pressure.
At Kota Rankers Point, our NDA preparation programme is designed around these complementary requirements. Students receive guidance for the NDA written examination alongside their regular school education. The programme focuses on Mathematics and the General Ability Test (GAT), while physical training, personality development and SSB-oriented preparation help students work towards the broader demands of a defence career.
