Hi Sail,
Promotions for soldiers is based upon training performance every willing soldier opts for. For example N Cadre, for becoming a Naik (two stripes), H Cadre for promotion as Havildar (three stripes) and so on. Once qualified he is promoted as per seniority and availability of vacancy. After serving in that rank for around 5 years, a sepoy is promoted to Lance Naik (one arm strip). After another 4-5 years, he is promoted to Naik (corporal in western armies). A naik wears 2 arm strips. Subedar-Major is the highest rank that a soldier who join as a sepoy can attain.

After completing you graduation, you can apply for different entries. After graduation, you can apply for CDSE, NCC, UES, TGC, ACC, SCO, PCSl. After clearing the written exam of the above, you have to clear SSB interview to get selected. Also, eligibility for all entries is different and I suggest you to take coaching for SSB so that you can get what happens there at SSB and they can guide you to that.
