What is the DHAS Senior Resident Vacancy 2026 by Speciality?
| Post | Speciality | Vacancies |
|---|---|---|
| Senior Resident | Anaesthesia | 1 |
| Senior Resident | Obs & Gynae | 1 |
| Senior Resident | Surgery | 1 |
| Senior Resident | Radiology | 3 |

The notice gives no category-wise split for these seats. Radiology has the most seats, and it is also the only department where interviews run beyond the first day. For Anaesthesia, Obs & Gynae and Surgery, 15 October is your only listed date, so plan your travel and leave for that day.
Since there are only six seats in total, competition inside each speciality can be close. A single seat in Surgery or Obs & Gynae means one candidate is selected from everyone who turns up that morning. If you are eligible, act now: this notice gave just one week’s warning.
What is the Eligibility for DHAS Senior Resident 2026?
Educational Qualification
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Degree | MBBS with a PG Degree / Diploma / DNB in the concerned speciality from a recognised university or institution |
| Registration | Valid registration with the Delhi Medical Council |
| Residency bar | You must not have completed 3 years of Senior Residency in any recognised institution, counting regular and ad-hoc periods together |
| Alternative route | If PG candidates are not available, 3 years of experience in the concerned speciality may be considered as per the residency scheme |
The Delhi Medical Council registration is easy to overlook if you are registered with another state council, so check it before you travel. Candidates taken through the experience route will be appointed ad-hoc for 44 days, extendable up to 3 years or until a candidate with a PG degree, diploma or DNB is available, whichever is earlier. This is a good opening for medical and healthcare professionals who want Delhi government hospital experience.
Read the residency bar slowly. It counts every Senior Resident period you have done anywhere, both regular and ad-hoc, so a few months of residency at different hospitals add up. If your total is already 3 years, you are not eligible as a fresh candidate, though the relaxation table below may still give you a chance.
Relaxation When Fresh Candidates Are Not Available
The 3-year residency bar has one exception, under a Delhi H&FW circular dated 10.6.2011.
| Rule | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Second chance | If fresh candidates are not available, those who have already completed 3 years of senior residency may also appear as fresh candidates |
| Separate merit list | A separate merit list is made for candidates who completed 3 years of residency |
| Order of use | The fresh-candidate list is exhausted first; the second list is used only after that |
| Term | Appointments from the second list are for 1 year only and are not renewable after one year |
DHAS Senior Resident Age Limit 2026
| Category | Maximum Age |
|---|---|
| General | 45 years |
| SC / ST | 50 years (5 years relaxation) |
| OBC | 48 years (3 years relaxation) |
| PwBD (Divyangjan) | 5 years extra relaxation |
| Age counted as on | Date of interview |

Your age is counted on the day you attend the interview. Radiology candidates who come on a later date should check their age on that date, not on 15 October.
Carry your date of birth proof and, if you are claiming relaxation, your category or disability certificate. The notice lists date of birth proof among the documents for registration, and a relaxation claim without its certificate can fail at verification.
What is the Salary for DHAS Senior Resident 2026?
The notice fixes pay at Pay Matrix Level 11.
| Component | Amount |
|---|---|
| Pay Level | Level 11 |
| Pay Range | ₹67,700 – ₹2,08,700 |
| Allowances | As admissible under the rules |
The notice does not list the allowances one by one, so treat the pay range above as the confirmed figure. Your exact in-hand amount will depend on the allowances the hospital applies.
For a young specialist, Level 11 is a solid starting point. It also adds Delhi government hospital experience to your CV, which helps later when you apply for faculty or specialist posts.
Tenure
| Point | Rule |
|---|---|
| First term | 44 days |
| Extension | Up to a maximum of 3 years, with a 1-day break after every 44 days |
| Condition | Subject to a satisfactory work and conduct report from the concerned in-charge, or until a regular candidate joins, whichever is earlier |
| Total cap | 3 years in all, including any earlier Senior Resident service (ad-hoc or regular) in any recognised institution |
| Service rules | Governed by the residency schemes under the Govt. of India Civil Services (Temporary) Rules |
If you have already worked as a Senior Resident elsewhere, that period counts toward the 3-year cap. Work out how much of it you have left before you plan around this job.
