Who can apply
The bar is a bachelor''s degree from a recognised university, plus working knowledge of computer operation and an English typing speed of 35 words per minute. Age must be between 18 and 30 as on 1 September 2026, with relaxations as per the rules for reserved categories. One point matters more than any other for Growentix readers: these are Indian government posts, open to Indian citizens. If you are reading from Nepal, this is not a vacancy you can apply for — but it is exactly the kind of real, high-profile vacancy whose name gets misused by agents who promise "Supreme Court jobs" for a fee. No agent can get you this post, and the Court takes applications online only.
How the selection runs
Selection starts with an objective-type test, tentatively scheduled for 20 November 2026 across 131 centres in India. Candidates who clear it move to a typing test, then a descriptive written test, and finally an interview. The last three stages are held in Delhi/NCR only, so shortlisted candidates should plan travel early rather than after the call letter arrives.
How to apply
- Go to the Supreme Court of India website and open the recruitments section for advertisement F.6/2026-SC(RC).
- Read the full advertisement before filling anything — eligibility, typing requirement and fee category all matter at the document-check stage.
- Fill the form online and pay the fee through the UCO Bank gateway only. The fee is non-refundable.
- Check every entry before submitting. The notice says submitted forms cannot be modified afterwards.
- Submit before 28 October 2026, 11:55 PM, and keep a copy of the submitted form and fee receipt.
Two practical warnings from the notice itself: do not send anything by post — postal applications are not accepted — and do not trust anyone offering a shortcut to this post. The process is online, merit-based, and run by the Court itself.
