The Indian Navy comes under the definition of 'armed forces' hence, RTI Act is not applicable to them. However, it is my suggestion that if you can submit your application to HR ministry (if they do not deal with the subject, atleast they will forward to the department dealing it!), you may get the result.

Dear Subramanayan your View is Correct ,
The Authority is designated as Armed Forces and affairs of the Authority are confidential, the same can not be issued .
Your Suggestion to approach the Ministry is correct .

Agreed with the comments of the members. RTI is very clear on this score.

Instead of demanding details it is better to submit a request letter explaining the grievances of your client to the higher Authorities .
