Five Brigadier level officers and other civil officials also assist him. The Headquarter is located in Delhi. The organizational structure continues as follows:

• Directorate – There are 17 Directorates located in the State Capitals headed by an officer of
  the rank of a Major General from the three Services.
• Group – Depending upon the size of the state and growth of NCC in the states, Directorates
  have up to 14 Group Headquarters under them through which they exercise their command
  and control of the organization in the state. Each group is headed by an officer of the rank of
  Brigadier or equivalent known as Group Commander.
•  Battalion- Each NCC Group Headquarters control 5-7 units commanded by Colonel/ Lt.
  Col or equivalent.

  NCC Officer (ANO) of the rank of lieutenant to major.

In all, there are 95 Group Headquarters in the country who exercise control over a network of 667 Army Wing Units (including technical and girls unit), 60 Naval Wing Units and 61 Air Squadrons. There are two training establishments namely Officers Training School, Kamptee (Nagpur, Maharashtra) and Women Officers Training School, Gwalior.

The NCC flag for various units of the NCC was first introduced in 1951. The flag was of same pattern, color and size as was used by various regiments of the Army. The only difference was that it had the NCC badge and unit designation placed in the center. Later on it was felt that the flag should be in keeping with the inter-service character of the Corps. In 1954 the existing tricolor flag was introduced. The three colors in the flag  depict  the  three services of the Corps, red for the Army, deep blue for the  Navy and  light blue for the Air Force. The letters NCC and the NCC crest in gold in the middle of the flag encircled by a wreath of Lotus, give the flag a colorful look and a distinct identity.
