The Indian Navy Agniveer SSR Medical Recruitment 2026 is a specialised entry for 12th-pass candidates with Biology — offering a unique opportunity to serve as a Medical Assistant in the Indian Navy under the Agnipath Scheme. The 02/2027 batch selection is conducted through the Indian Navy Entrance Test (INET) 2026, with applications expected to open in May 2026 and close in June 2026 at joinindiannavy.gov.in.

For the 02/2027 batch, candidates must have been born between 01 November 2003 and 30 April 2007 (both dates inclusive). This ensures the candidate falls within the 17.5 to 21 years age bracket at the time of enrollment in November 2026.
| Post | Stream | Minimum Qualification | Marks Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agniveer SSR Medical | Science (PCB) | 10+2 Intermediate with Physics, Chemistry & Biology | Minimum 50% aggregate AND minimum 50% marks in Biology specifically |
The Biology marks requirement (50% minimum in Biology alone) is a critical filter — candidates who score below 50% in Biology specifically are ineligible even if their aggregate is above 50%. This is different from the regular SSR entry which focuses on Mathematics. Female candidates are also eligible to apply for this role. All candidates must be unmarried at the time of application.
The selection for Indian Navy Agniveer SSR Medical 02/2027 follows a two-stage model. Stage I is the computer-based INET exam (online, objective type) covering: English, Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology), Mathematics, and General Knowledge. Candidates who qualify Stage I are shortlisted for Stage II, which comprises a Physical Fitness Test (PFT) involving 1.6km run (7 minutes for males, 8.5 minutes for females), push-ups, sit-ups, and squats; followed by a thorough Medical Examination as per Navy medical standards. Candidates clearing all stages are enrolled into the 02/2027 training batch at INS Chilka or equivalent training establishment.
Agniveers serving as Medical Assistants receive a monthly package starting at ₹30,000 in Year 1, scaling to ₹40,000 by Year 4. A portion (30%) is contributed to the Seva Nidhi corpus, which — along with the government's matching contribution — yields approximately ₹11.71 lakh upon exit after 4 years. Agniveers also receive free accommodation, medical facilities, Canteen (CSD) access, and ECHS health coverage during service. Upon completion, top performers (25%) may be offered permanent Navy enrolment.
