In which year was the first batch of women officers commissioned into the Indian Army?

The first batch of women officers was commissioned into the Indian Army in 1992. This was a landmark development in the history of the Indian Armed Forces, opening up officer-level positions for women beyond the medical stream. Initially, women officers were commissioned as Short Service Commission (SSC) officers in select non-combat branches. In 2020, following a Supreme Court judgment, permanent commission for women officers across ten arms and services was granted, further expanding their role in the Indian Army.
