KVIC Young Professional Recruitment 2026 Notification: Khadi, Legal, Audit & Other Posts in Three Zones
Good news for post-graduates under 27. The Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC), a statutory body under the Ministry of MSME, has released three zone-wise advertisements for 30 Young Professional posts on a contractual basis. The biggest openings are Khadi (8), Legal (6) and Audit (5), along with Admin, Accounts, Village Industries and General posts. You get a fixed ₹25,000 to ₹30,000 per month plus conveyance. If you want real work experience in a central body in the early years of your career, this is a central-level opening for post graduates worth a serious look.
The West Zone (Mumbai), East Zone (Kolkata) and North Zone (New Delhi) offices are each recruiting 10 Young Professionals. All three accept applications online only, and the last date is 30 October 2026. Selection is by shortlisting on qualification and experience, followed by a personal interview. Read your own zone’s table carefully, because each zone has different posts and posting places. We at GovtJobsAlert.in have put all three advertisements together for you below.

| Khadi (East) | PG degree in a relevant field | PG in Textile Engineering, Textile Technology, Fashion Technology, Textile Chemistry or equivalent |
| Legal (West, North) | PG degree in a relevant field | PG degree in Law |
| Audit (West, East) | PG degree in a relevant field | CA, MBA (Finance), M.Com or M.Sc (Accounting/Finance) or equivalent |

The degree must come from a recognised university or institution. Only full-time regular courses count, from UGC-recognised universities or deemed universities, or AICTE-approved courses. If your university gives CGPA or a grade, enter the equivalent percentage in the form and keep the university’s conversion certificate ready for verification. For the West Zone Khadi posts, note that a textile or fashion PG is essential, not just preferred. Legal and finance candidates can also browse more law and judicial government jobs.
Experience and Skills
No minimum experience is fixed, but experience is used for shortlisting and for deciding your pay within the range. Internship training shall not be considered as work experience — only direct work, including fixed-term employment in an organisation, counts. Since shortlisting is done on qualification and experience, write the 200-word experience note in the form with care. KVIC also wants good knowledge of MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint, and good communication and writing skills.
