Vacancy Details

The Indian Air Force does not fix a set number of Agniveer Vayu posts in this notice. The official advertisement states that vacancies and the intake of female candidates will be decided "as per service requirement". So there is no official vacancy count for Intake 02/2027 yet. Do not trust any fixed number quoted on unofficial websites. The Air Force fills seats state-wise from a merit list after all stages of testing.
