Unfortunately for me, I was told by a retired officer that I am ineligible to even try to join Special forces(along with armoured and aviation corps of the army)as I am too tall at 208cm.Unlike in US which provides waivers in many cases to candidates over 203cm, Indian Army has no such system.
Anyways I am pretty sure I would have failed the physicals even if I was shorter.

Seriously? Then the PBG be disbanded ...!!!! What's you height? (yeah armor and aviation is an issue except Jaguars)

Most PBG personnel are around 190cm.
I am 208cm(~6'10").
When I applied for OFB, I had to go through a medical test that all candidates over 200cm had to undertake to check whether they have acromegaly/Marfans or not.
