This recruitment covers approximately 25,000 vacancies across the Agniveer categories — General Duty (GD), Technical, Clerk/Store Keeper, Tradesmen, and others — making it one of the largest defence-recruitment cycles of the year. This page walks you through the download flow, what to carry, and exam-day instructions.

How to download the admit card

  1. Open joinindianarmy.nic.in (the official Indian Army recruitment portal).
  2. Click the "Agniveer CEE Admit Card 2026" or "Hall Ticket Download" link on the homepage / candidate login section.
  3. Enter your Application Number and Date of Birth in the prescribed format.
  4. Submit — your admit card opens on screen.
  5. Verify every detail — name, photograph, centre address, exam date, reporting time, category.
  6. Download the PDF and print at least 2 copies on a fresh A4 sheet.

What the admit card contains

Your individual Agniveer CEE admit card shows the centre name and address, the exam date (within the 1–15 June window), the reporting time, the category you applied under, and centre-specific instructions. Each candidate's centre and date are decided by the Army Recruiting Office (ARO) zone you applied through — check it carefully because the centre can be in a different town from your home district.

What to carry to the centre

  • Printed admit card (2 copies — one to surrender at the centre, one for your record).
  • One valid original photo ID — Aadhaar, Voter ID, PAN, Passport, or Driving Licence.
  • Black ball-point pens (carry 2 — the CEE uses OMR-style answer sheets).
  • Original document set — Class 10/12 certificates, category certificate (SC/ST/OBC-NCL), domicile, and any sons-of-serving/ex-servicemen documents (if applicable). Some ARO zones verify these on the CEE day.
  • Passport-size photos (recent, matching the one on the admit card) — typically 2-4 copies.

Do NOT carry: mobile phone, smart watch, calculator, electronic device, bag (centres usually do not have storage), or any printed/written material.

After the CEE

The Agniveer selection sequence after the CEE is:

  1. CEE shortlisting — candidates clearing the merit-based CEE cut-off are called for the next stage.
  2. Physical Fitness Test (PFT) — running, push-ups, sit-ups, body strength (specific norms by category and zone).
  3. Physical Measurement Test (PMT) — height, chest, weight per category.
  4. Medical Examination — strict Army A-1 medical standards apply.
  5. Document Verification — final document check.
  6. Enrollment — successful candidates enrol as Agniveers for the four-year service.

The PFT and PMT schedules are announced by each ARO zone separately after the CEE result.

How Agniveer fits in the broader defence-career picture

The Agnipath scheme recruits soldiers, sailors, and airmen for a four-year service period, after which roughly 25% are absorbed for regular service. Agniveer is the primary post-12th defence entry path for candidates who don't aim for the officer track (NDA/CDS/AFCAT). For a comparison of all defence officer routes, read our AFCAT vs NDA vs CDS guide.

Indian Army Agniveer CEE Admit Card 2026 — Analysis & Trends

Resultpedia analysis: the centre logistics that decide Agniveer CEE success

The Indian Army Agniveer CEE is unusual in two ways that shape how candidates should approach the 1–15 June window. First, your assigned date can be on any day across the 15-day window — and unlike a single-shift exam where everyone preps for the same day, an Agniveer candidate could be scheduled for day 1 or day 15. The implication: prepare to peak by 1 June, not the middle of June, because if you happen to be assigned an early date and assume you have until mid-June, you'll be under-prepared. Second, the centre can be in a different town from your home district depending on the ARO zone — candidates routinely lose seats because they discovered this only a day before reporting and couldn't arrange travel + accommodation. The 24 hours after admit-card download should be spent on a single task: confirm the centre address, plan travel and overnight accommodation, and have the document file ready so that the day before reporting is for rest, not for logistics.
