How Many Vacancies are in Arunachal PSC Group A & B Recruitment 2026?
| Post | Department and Group | Vacancies |
|---|---|---|
| Finance & Accounts Officer / Treasury Officer | Finance, Group-A | 7 (1 reserved for PwBD) |

The single PwBD seat is under Finance & Accounts Officer / Treasury Officer and is only for the Deaf & Hard of Hearing / Partially Deaf disability category. The other three posts carry no PwBD seat. Two more FAO/TO posts are covered by writ petition WP(C) No. 549/2025 and are not included in these 7. The Commission says the vacancies and reservation are based on the “Proforma of Requisition” sent by the departments.
Which post should you aim for? A Commerce or BBA degree opens both Finance posts, an Economics degree opens Treasury Officer, and other backgrounds depend on the subject rules below (maths suits Treasury Officer only). Treasury Officer is the bigger prize at Group-A. If you are an advocate with 7+ years of criminal practice, Assistant Public Prosecutor has 18 of the 37 seats, the largest share in this advertisement.
Who Can Apply for APPSC Recruitment 2026? Mandatory APST Eligibility Conditions
Under Government Notification F.No.AR-33/17/2026-SECT-1-AR dated 26 August 2026, every applicant must satisfy all three conditions below.
| Criterion | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Permanent Residence | Citizen of India and inhabitant of Arunachal Pradesh holding a valid Permanent Residence Certificate (PRC) issued by the designated Competent Authority, Government of Arunachal Pradesh |
| Indigenous Status | Original inhabitant of Arunachal Pradesh holding an APST Certificate issued by the Competent Authority, as per the tribes listed under the Constitution (Scheduled Tribes) Order, 1950 |
| Tribal Language | Must be able to speak any Indigenous Tribal Language of Arunachal Pradesh and have working knowledge of the local indigenous tribes; the Language Test mechanism follows the same Government Notification |
This is the first thing to settle. A strong degree does not help if one of these three is missing, so keep your PRC and APST certificate ready before you think about the syllabus. Candidates from other states, and Arunachal residents without APST status, cannot apply for these posts.
What is the Eligibility and Age Limit for APPSC Treasury Officer and Prosecutor Posts 2026?
Educational Qualification
| Post | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Finance & Accounts Officer / Treasury Officer | Bachelor Degree in Commerce, Business Administration or Economics, OR Bachelor Degree in any discipline with Statistics or Mathematics as one of the subjects from a recognized University. Any-discipline graduates must have studied either Statistics or Mathematics as a compulsory subject in all semesters/years |
| Sub Treasury Officer | Bachelor Degree in Commerce or Bachelor in Business Administration, OR Bachelor Degree in any discipline with Economics and Statistics as one of the subjects from a recognized University. Any-discipline graduates must have studied either Statistics or Economics as a compulsory subject in all semesters/years |
| Assistant Director (Prosecution) | Bachelor of Law from a recognized University with minimum 7 years of active practice as an advocate in criminal courts, OR experience as a Magistrate of the First Class |
| Assistant Public Prosecutor | Bachelor of Law from a recognized University with minimum 7 years of experience in criminal law practice |
For the two Finance posts, the “all semesters” rule applies when you use the any-discipline route, for example with a B.Sc. or B.A. If the required subject was taught only in your first year, you do not meet it. Commerce and finance graduates holding a degree named in the first route, and Economics graduates applying for FAO/TO, are not affected by this rule. For Sub Treasury Officer, the main line says “Economics and Statistics” while the proviso says “either Statistics or Economics”, so if you studied only one of them, confirm with APPSC before paying.
Final-semester students can apply for the two Finance posts, but must produce proof of passing in original on or before the interview date. For the two law and judicial posts, the 7-year Experience Certificate or the Magistrate First Class Appointment Order must be uploaded with the online form itself.
Age Limit
| Category | Age Rule (as on 12 October 2026) |
|---|---|
| Minimum Age | 21 years |
| Maximum Age | 35 years |

🎂 Not sure if you meet the age criteria? Use our free Age Calculator for Government Exams to find your exact age on the cut-off date and instantly check your eligibility — including APST / APST PwBD age relaxation. →
The Commission accepts only the date of birth in your Matriculation Certificate. Horoscopes, affidavits, municipal birth extracts and service records are not accepted. Arunachal Government employees claiming relaxation must submit an Appointment Order proving 3 years of continuous regular service in the same line or allied cadre.
Since every applicant here must hold APST status, the APST relaxation clause matters to you directly. We have quoted it exactly as the notification prints it. If you are close to the age boundary, work out your exact age on 12 October 2026 and read the age rule in the official notification before you pay.
What is the Salary for APPSC Treasury Officer and Prosecutor Posts 2026?

Both Group-A posts start at Level 10. Assistant Public Prosecutor has the most seats (18) and sits at Level 8, which is why law graduates with the required experience should not skip it. All four are gazetted posts under the Government of Arunachal Pradesh.
What is the Selection Process for Arunachal PSC Group A & B 2026?
| Stage | Detail |
|---|---|
| Recruitment Test (Objective) | Held only if applicants are more than the required ratio. Screening only; marks are not counted in the final merit. 12 times the advertised posts, or as the Commission decides, go to the Written Examination |
| Written Examination | General English & General Studies (Objective) plus two descriptive Concerned Subject papers |
| Viva-Voce | About 3 times the vacancies, or as the Commission decides, subject to qualifying marks |
| Document Verification | Originals on or before the date of interview/viva-voce |
| Before Appointment | The appointing department conducts the medical test and verifies character, antecedents and documents |
Exam Pattern
| Paper | Maximum Marks |
|---|---|
| General English and General Studies (Objective) | 150 |
| Concerned Subject Paper-I (Descriptive) | 150 |
| Concerned Subject Paper-II (Descriptive) | 150 |
| Viva-Voce | 50 |
| Aggregate (Written + Viva-Voce) | 500 |
| Post | Concerned Subject | Recruitment Test (200 marks) |
|---|---|---|
| FAO/TO and Sub Treasury Officer | Any one of Commerce, Economics, Statistics or Mathematics (Paper-I and Paper-II) | Commercial Mathematics and General Awareness & Current Affairs |
| Assistant Director (Prosecution) and APP | Paper-I: Core Criminal Laws; Paper-II: Constitutional Law and Other Special Legislations | Concerned Subject (same syllabus as the written exam) |
| Category | Minimum to Qualify for Viva-Voce |
|---|---|
| Non-PwBD candidates | 33% aggregate in the written exam, with at least 20% in each paper |
| PwBD | 20% aggregate in the written exam, with at least 10% in each paper |
The detailed syllabus is on the APPSC website. Two descriptive papers of 150 marks each carry most of the weight, so practise writing full answers, not just MCQs. Our syllabus and exam pattern section can help you plan.
Remember that the Recruitment Test is conditional. If many candidates apply, you will face a 200-mark objective screening first, so prepare Commercial Mathematics and current affairs (Finance posts) or the whole Concerned Subject (law posts) alongside your descriptive papers. Both the Recruitment Test and the Written Examination will be held in the Itanagar Capital Region.
