Becoming An Officer in the Army- Service Entry

One of the ways of getting commission in the Defence forces is through ranks.

you can join as a soldier, sailor , airman or Navik (Coast Guard), Constable.
Here you join as early as 18 years, with in two years you will get an opportunity to apply for commission in the forces, ( provided you fulfill certain conditions, like educational qualification, service limit)

There are a fixed number of vacancies allotted to this category of aspirants.

Once in a period of six months you can try for this commission. I know of a cadet you joined NDA after he became a Sailor, he was the only person in the entire NDA was drawing salary every month. while others were getting money order from home.

Hence the double benefit is that
your service in the rank would be counted towards your pension
you fight with people of your  caliber.
Getting selected at the SSB is more .
example
You become  a solider and on serving for two years, + 2 qualification
You are permitted to sit for the examination called
Army Cadet College
This is at Dehradun and part of IMA complex
This is  just like NDA
You will be trained like NDA Cadets  and receive a BA or a B.Sc  certificate and then move to IMA for just 1 more year training before you get the commissioned rank.
The sky is the limit thereafter

I know generals who had joined the army as a soldier.
