Who can apply

For Junior Engineer, the essential qualification is a degree or diploma in Electrical Engineering, with the detail varying by department. NDMC and MCD accept a degree, or a diploma with two years of professional experience. Delhi Agricultural Marketing Board needs a diploma with two years of electrical installation or maintenance work. Delhi Transco accepts a degree or diploma with no experience required, and DUSIB needs a diploma. The pay reflects that split: Delhi Transco pays Pay Level 8, from Rs 52,000 to Rs 1,51,100, while NDMC, MCD and DUSIB pay Pay Level 6, from Rs 35,400 to Rs 1,12,400.

For Multi-Tasking Staff, the essential qualification is Matriculation or an equivalent pass from a recognised board; DUSIB also accepts an Industrial Training Institute pass. No experience is required for any MTS post, and the pay is Pay Level 1, from Rs 18,000 to Rs 56,900, in Group C.

The age limit is 18 to 27 years for most posts, including all MTS posts. The exception is Junior Engineer in NDMC, where the limit is 18 to 32 years. Departmental candidates can get relaxation up to 40 years for MTS posts, and category-wise age relaxation is given in para 8 of the advertisement. The crucial date for qualification, age and experience is 11 December 2026, the closing date of the application. Multi-Tasking Staff – Aaya is for women candidates only, and conditions vary by department, so check the post you want in the advertisement before you apply.

The fee, and who does not pay

The application fee is Rs 100, and women candidates and candidates from SC, ST, PwBD and ex-serviceman categories are exempt. Pay online only, through SBI e-pay — no other mode is accepted, and a payment made by another route stands forfeited. The fee, once paid, will not be refunded. Ex-servicemen who have already secured civil employment under the Central Government or the Government of NCT of Delhi after availing re-employment benefits are not eligible for the fee concession.

How the selection works

Junior Engineer has a Two Tier (Technical) examination and Multi-Tasking Staff a One Tier (General) examination, separate for each post code. Tier-I for Junior Engineer is a two-hour paper of 200 questions for 200 marks: Section A carries 100 marks across General Awareness, General Intelligence and Reasoning, Arithmetical and Numerical Ability, Hindi and English, at 20 marks each, and Section B carries 100 marks from the subject concerned. Tier-I is only qualifying and is used to shortlist candidates for Tier-II. Tier-II is also two hours, with 150 questions for 200 marks: Part I has 100 one-mark questions covering the syllabus of the qualifying subject, and Part II has 50 two-mark questions testing the application of concepts and problem solving. The final merit list comes from Tier-II.

The MTS paper is a single two-hour tier of 200 questions for 200 marks, with five sections of 40 marks each: General Awareness, General Intelligence and Reasoning, Arithmetical and Numerical Ability, Hindi and English, and the final merit list comes from the marks in that paper.

There is negative marking: 0.25 marks for each wrong answer to a one-mark question, and 0.50 marks for each wrong answer to a two-mark question. The minimum qualifying marks are 40 percent for General and EWS candidates, 35 percent for OBC (Delhi) candidates and 30 percent for SC, ST and PwBD candidates, with a 5 percent relaxation for ex-servicemen, subject to a minimum of 30 percent. The questions are bilingual in Hindi and English, except for the language papers. A skill, endurance, driving or trade test will be taken as per the requirement of the job, and candidates must submit department and post preferences when e-dossiers are called, with at least one preference compulsory.

How to apply

Apply online only at dsssbonline.nic.in. The window opens on 12 November 2026 at 12:00 noon and closes on 11 December 2026 at 11:59 PM, when the link will be disabled. No other mode is accepted, and applications sent by post, by hand or by email will not be considered. Submit the form well before the closing date: the Board warns that heavy load on the website in the closing days can stop a candidate from logging in. Check every field before submission, because no change or correction, including a change of category, is entertained after the form is submitted. Keep your registration details, the payment receipt and a copy of the submitted form.

Another large recruitment is open at the same time: RRB NTPC Undergraduate has opened 1,688 clerk posts for 12th pass candidates, and applications there close on 13 November, so candidates eligible for both should plan the two deadlines together. RRB Isolated Categories has 191 posts with applications open till 4 December for graduates looking for a longer window.

What the notification does not say

The notification names no examination date. The Board says the date will be intimated in due course, only through its website, so any other date printed elsewhere is not from the notification. It does not say how many posts will finally be filled, because the 1,260 vacancies are tentative. It does not give a final joining date, because that follows the examination and document verification. It does not spell out which posts will carry a skill test or trade test, and the category-wise age relaxation table sits in para 8 of the advertisement, so check it there rather than trusting a summary. The examination scheme can also be changed by the Board at any time before the examination.

Never pay anyone who promises to get you a seat. Genuine recruitment never charges a fee beyond what the notification itself names, and this advertisement names Rs 100 only, payable through SBI e-pay, with women, SC, ST, PwBD and ex-serviceman candidates exempt.
