The Indian Army published the TGC-144 merit list for the course beginning in January 2027 at Indian Military Academy, Dehradun. It comprises names of all candidates who successfully cleared the SSB interview for the said entry to become officers in the Indian Army.
Today, we tell you the order of merit of candidates as per the TGC-144 merit list and everything else that you must know about it.
What is TGC-144 Merit List?
Let us begin by understanding what TGC-144 merit list means. TGC-144 stands for the 144th Technical Graduate Course which will commence in January 2027.
This merit list is the final result of the said entry after five rigorous days of SSB interview, followed by medicals and documentation for the recommended male candidates.
Under this entry, candidates will be training for a year at IMA in Dehradun, subject to their position in the TGC-144 merit list, and on successful completion of training they will:
- Get a year of seniority in service, that is, they will be promoted to the rank of Captain after one year
- Be commissioned as permanent commission officers

Important Points To Remember
Before we build on the TGC-144 merit list, here is a list of three points that you must remember, if your name is in the final result:
- If you have not submitted copies of all semester marksheets, degree/provisional degree certificate, or any other required document, you must submit the same immediately in the form of a self-attested scanned copy in the “Feedback/Query” section of joinindianarmy.nic.in
- All joining letters will be issues subject to your merit position, number of vacancies, medical fitness, adequate documents, and fulfilling all the criteria for TGC-144.
- The TGC-144 merit list does not take medical fitness and documentation of candidates into account.
With this, we can now move to the names of top AIR holders in the merit list.
