Who Can Apply for DAHV Assam Field Assistant (Statistics) / Enumerator 2026?
Educational Qualification
The advertisement lists three requirements, and you must meet all three.
| Requirement | What the Advertisement Says |
|---|---|
| Degree (Route 1) | Bachelor’s degree in any subject from a recognised university, having studied at least one paper of Statistics, Economics, Mathematics, Social Science, Sociology or Psychology at Graduate level |
| Degree (Route 2) | Bachelor’s degree in any subject with 50% marks in Mathematics at 12th standard |
| Language | English and any one local language (Assamese, Bengali or Bodo) as subjects during HSLC |
| Computer | Computer Course Certificate of minimum 6 months from a Government recognised Institute — must be uploaded |
Route 2 is the one many graduates miss. Even if your degree had no Statistics or Economics paper, you still qualify if you scored 50% in Mathematics in Class 12. The language rule is strict too: both English and a local language must appear as subjects on your HSLC. The post also expects comfort in keying data on a handheld device.

|---|---|
| Minimum Age | 21 years |
| Maximum Age (General) | 40 years |

| Grade Pay | ₹5,600 |
| Allowances | Other allowances as admissible from time to time |
The advertisement does not give an in-hand figure, so we have not guessed one. Your final monthly pay will depend on the allowances applicable to you when you join.
What is the Selection Process for DAHV Assam Enumerator 2026?
The advertisement does not print the selection method or exam pattern. It says the details of selection procedure and examination will be available on the application portal from the starting date of application, that is from 15 October 2026. What it does fix is shown below.
| Point | What the Advertisement Says |
|---|---|
| Basis of Selection | Merit |

Check the portal as soon as it opens and start preparing with our syllabus and exam pattern guides while you wait.
The advertisement does refer to an examination — for example, it says no TA/DA is paid for attending it — so plan for one. But do not trust any exam pattern you see elsewhere until the Commission publishes it on the portal. Merit decides the final list, so every mark will count.
