About This Recruitment

The prescribed qualification is A commerce degree, with typing at 4,000 to 7,000 key depressions an hour for the assistant posts, and the age limit is 21 to 42 years before category relaxation is applied. The vacancies are spread across 10 distinct posts, and the category-wise split for each is set out in the vacancy table below.
Selection is made through Offline objective written examination and Document verification. Selected candidates are placed in the pay scale of ₹25,500 – ₹1,12,400, across Levels 4 to 6. The place of posting is Group C services across Uttarakhand. The examination is currently scheduled for 12 Oct 2026, which leaves a defined window to work back from when planning preparation.
The application fee is ₹300 for Unreserved and OBC, and no fee is payable by Orphans. The entire process is completed online, from registration through to fee payment and the final printout of the confirmation page. A correction window is available after applications close, and it is the only opportunity to amend most fields — details are in the dates table below.
Read the official notification in full before you begin the form. Eligibility, fees and dates are revised through corrigenda more often than candidates expect, and an application submitted against the wrong criteria is rejected at document verification rather than at submission — by which point the cycle is over.
