| Post | Classification | Vacancies |
|---|---|---|
| Superintendent | Group ‘B’, Non-Gazetted, Ministerial | 10 |
The notice gives one total of 10 posts. It does not print any category-wise split, so there is no separate seat count for any category to check.

What is the Eligibility for CWPRS Superintendent Recruitment 2026?
Eligibility here works in two parts. You must meet part (a) through either of its two routes, and you must also meet part (b).
| Condition | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Who | Officials of the Central Government |
| Part (a) Route (i) | Holding an analogous post on a regular basis in the parent cadre or department |
| Part (a) Route (ii) | Six years’ regular service rendered after appointment to the post on regular basis in the level-5 in the pay matrix (Rs.29200-92300) or equivalent in the parent cadre or department |
| Part (b) Education | Bachelor’s Degree from a recognized University or Institute |
| Part (b) Experience | Two years’ experience in Administration or Establishment work in a Central Government Office |
Do not skip route (ii). Many people think they must already hold a Superintendent-level post. That is not true. Six years of regular Level 5 service also qualifies, with a graduate degree and two years’ Central Government admin or establishment work, unless you are CWPRS feeder-line staff.

The age is counted on the closing date, and that date depends on when the advertisement is printed in Employment News. If you are close to 56, work out your age carefully once the closing date is known.
What is the Salary for CWPRS Superintendent 2026 on Deputation?
| Component | Detail |
|---|---|
| Pay Level | Level 6 in Pay Matrix |
| Pre-revised Scale | PB-2 Rs.9300-34800 + Grade Pay Rs. 4200/- |
| Deputation Period | Ordinarily not more than three years |
The notification states the pay only as Level 6 with the pre-revised PB-2 scale and Grade Pay Rs. 4200. It does not print a separate monthly figure, so we have not added one. For Level 5 officials applying under route (ii), this is a clear step up in pay level.
The three-year limit also counts any deputation you spent in another ex-cadre post just before this one, in the same or another Central Government organisation or department. So if you are already on deputation somewhere, check how much time you have used.
What is the Selection Process for CWPRS Superintendent 2026?
| Stage | Detail |
|---|---|
| Shortlisting | Officials are shortlisted from the applications received |
| Selection Committee | Your Curriculum Vitae, supported by documents, is assessed by the Selection Committee at the time of selection |
The notice names only these steps and does not describe any test pattern. Because the committee reads your CV and documents, fill the CV proforma neatly and list every relevant posting with dates. Keep checking results and selection lists for updates.
How to Apply for CWPRS Superintendent Recruitment 2026 Offline?
There is no online form. The application goes on paper, and your own office must forward it.
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Download the notification PDF (link in Essential Links). The application proforma (Annexure-A) is on pages 3-4 and the Curriculum Vitae proforma is on pages 5-7 |
| 2 | Fill both proformas, sign the declaration, and prepare the application in duplicate |
| 3 | Submit it to your own office or cadre controlling authority so it can be forwarded through proper channel |
| 4 | Your employer verifies and certifies that your particulars are correct and countersigns the form with seal |
| 5 | The employer attaches your supporting documents, complete and up-to-date CR / APAR for the last five years, and a certificate that no vigilance or disciplinary action is pending and you were not penalized during the last ten years |
| 6 | Your office forwards the application to the address given in the notification: The Chief Administrative Officer, Central Water and Power Research Station, Khadakwasla, Pune-411024, to reach within 30 days of the Employment News advertisement |
Start early. Forwarding through proper channel takes time inside your office, and the application must reach CWPRS within the 30 days, not just leave your office. The CR / APAR and the vigilance certificate must go with the form, so ask your establishment section for them first.

The exact calendar last date is yet to be announced, as CWPRS has not printed one. Once the advertisement appears in Employment News, count 30 days from that date and plan backwards.

Is There Any Application Fee for CWPRS Superintendent 2026?
| Category | Fee |
|---|---|

The notification names no fee to attach. Put that effort into getting your documents and employer certificate right. If anyone asks you to pay money to get your form forwarded or selected, treat it as a warning sign and report it to your office.
Which Conditions Can Reject Your CWPRS Superintendent Application?
| Condition | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Direct applications | Applications received directly without following proper channel will not be considered |
| Incomplete forms | Applications incomplete in any aspect will not be considered |

Read these six lines twice — four can end your application before anyone looks at your merit. Remember also that a deputation post is time-bound, so think about how the three-year period fits with your own promotion plans at home.
