CDS Photo & Signature Guidelines
CDS (Combined Defence Services Exam) requires a photograph sized exactly 200x230px under 100KB, and a signature sized 140x60px under 50KB, both in JPG format. Uploading images that don't match these specs is one of the most common reasons CDS applications get rejected at the online submission stage. This tool resizes and compresses your photo and signature to match exactly, so you can complete your CDS application without delays.
