How Many Vacancies Are in NIT Uttarakhand Recruitment 2026?
The category split is different for every post, so check the row for your own post.
| Post | Category-wise Vacancies | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Superintendent * | UR 1 | 1 |
| Technical Assistant * | UR 5 / OBC 1 | 6 |
| Technician (SG-II) * | UR 5 / OBC 1 / SC 1 | 7 |
| Technician | UR 3 / OBC 1 | 4 |
| Junior Assistant | UR 3 | 3 |
| All Posts | UR 17 / OBC 3 / SC 1 | 21 |
| Post | Discipline-wise Vacancies | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Technical Assistant | Civil 2, Electrical 1, Electronics 1, CSE 1, Mechanical 1 | 6 |
| Technician (SG-II) | CSE 2, Electronics 2, Electrical 1, Mechanical 1, Library 1 | 7 |
| Technician | Civil 2, Electrical 1, Electronics 1 | 4 |
\* For posts marked with a star, the number of posts is indicative and may change as per the Institute’s needs. There is no ST or EWS seat in any post, and SC has only one seat (Technician SG-II). The Institute also keeps the right to increase or decrease posts in any category.
Here is a simple way to read these tables. If you are 12th pass with good typing speed, Junior Assistant is your post. ITI and diploma holders in Civil, Electrical or Electronics should look at Technician first, because it is a plain contract post. First Class B.E./B.Tech., MCA and B.Sc. holders fit Technical Assistant, but that post runs through the deputation route, so check the experience table below before paying the fee.
What is the Eligibility for NIT Uttarakhand Non-Teaching Recruitment 2026?
Educational Qualification
| Post | Required Qualification |
|---|---|
| Superintendent | First Class Bachelor’s Degree (or equivalent) in any discipline, OR Master’s Degree in any discipline with at least 50% marks or equivalent grade; plus knowledge of Word Processing and Spread Sheet |
| Technical Assistant | First Class (or equivalent grade) B.E. / B.Tech. / MCA in relevant subject, OR First Class Diploma in Engineering in relevant field with excellent academic record, OR First Class B.Sc., OR M.Sc. with at least 50% marks or equivalent grade |
| Technician (SG-II) | 10+2 Science with 60%, OR 10+2 with 50% plus ITI (1 year or more) in appropriate trade, OR 10th with 60% plus 2-year ITI, OR 3-year Engineering Diploma in relevant field |
| Technician | 10+2 Science with 60% from a Government recognised board, OR 10+2 with 50% plus ITI (1 year or more) in appropriate trade, OR 10th with 60% plus 2-year ITI, OR 3-year Engineering Diploma in relevant field from a Government recognised Polytechnic / Institute |
| Junior Assistant | 10+2 from a recognised board with typing speed of 35 w.p.m. and skill in Word Processing and Spread Sheet (desirable: other computer skills, stenography) |
With a diploma in engineering or an ITI certificate, Technician is your strongest match; SG-II needs deputation experience. Read “relevant field” and “appropriate trade” carefully against your own discipline.
Experience for Deputation Posts (Posts 1-3)

|---|---|
| Superintendent | Holding an analogous post, OR 2 years regular service with Grade Pay ₹4,200 as Assistant (SG-I) or equivalent |

| Technician (SG-II) | Holding an analogous post, OR 5 years regular service with Grade Pay ₹2,400 as Senior Technician or equivalent |
For these three posts, the Rules describe the deputation route (including short-term contract) for officers of Central/State Government, semi-Government bodies, PSUs, autonomous bodies, universities and Institutes of National Importance. If you are not a serving employee, read Annexure-II in the notification before you pay any fee.

What is the Salary for NIT Uttarakhand Non-Teaching Posts 2026?
| Post | Pay Level | On Contract (Consolidated) |
|---|---|---|
| Superintendent | Level 6 (₹35,400 – ₹1,12,400) | ₹57,000 |
| Technical Assistant | Level 6 (₹35,400 – ₹1,12,400) | ₹57,000 |

| Junior Assistant | Not stated in the advertisement | ₹35,000 |
Contract pay is a fixed consolidated amount of ₹35,000 to ₹57,000 a month, depending on the post.
Consolidated means one fixed monthly figure. The advertisement does not list any separate allowances on top of it, so plan your budget on this amount.
For selected deputation candidates, pay and terms follow DoPT OM No. 6/8/2009-Estt.(Pay-II) dated 17/06/2010, as amended. Even ₹35,000 consolidated for a 12th-pass Junior Assistant is a solid start at a national institute.
What is the Selection Process for NIT Uttarakhand Recruitment 2026?
| Stage | Detail |
|---|---|
| Written Test | In the relevant field of specialisation or trade |
| Trade Test | Only the top “N” candidates by written-test marks, where N = number of posts × 6 |
| Merit List | Prepared on the basis of the Written Test and Trade Test |
| Document Verification | Original certificates plus one set of self-attested copies |
The shortlist is published only on the Institute website, and no separate letter is sent. Bring your Admit Card, a valid photo ID and all original documents. Since only six candidates per post reach the Trade Test, your written score decides shortlisting, so practise with previous year question papers in your trade. The advertisement does not publish an exam pattern or syllabus, so prepare from the core subjects of your own discipline or trade.
How to Apply for NIT Uttarakhand Non-Teaching Recruitment 2026?
The process differs by post: Posts 1-3 are deputation (including short-term contract) and Posts 4-5 are contract, and what goes inside your envelope changes with that. Every applicant applies online first and then posts a hard copy.
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Decide your post and its mode: deputation (Superintendent, Technical Assistant, Technician SG-II) or contract (Technician, Junior Assistant) |
| 2 | Open the Apply Online link in Essential Links and fill one separate form for each post you want |
| 3 | Pay the fee online if you are not exempt, and write your name on the fee receipt |
| 4 | Print the online form and attach the fee receipt and self-attested copies of your documents |
| 5 | Deputation applicants also attach attested ACRs/APARs for the last five years, Vigilance Clearance, NOC and the Annexure-I employer certificate |
| 6 | Seal it in an envelope marked “Application for the post of ____” and send it to The Registrar, National Institute of Technology Uttarakhand, Srinagar Campus, Srinagar (Garhwal), District Pauri Garhwal, Uttarakhand 246174 |
| 7 | Make sure it reaches by 11 November 2026, 5:30 PM — the Institute is not responsible for postal delay |
Keep your 10th certificate or equivalent showing date of birth (or the 10th mark sheet, or a school leaving certificate if the board documents do not show it), your 12th or equivalent mark sheet, your degree or diploma mark sheets and your category certificate ready. OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) and EWS certificates must be issued on or after 1 April 2026, or the reservation claim will not be counted.
