What is the Eligibility for Sikkim High Court Recruitment 2026?
Do not just look at the post title. Look at the experience line, because that is where most candidates get stuck. The Senior Technical Officer post is about running IT systems: networks, servers, databases and hardware support. The two developer posts are about writing and maintaining software. If your work so far is in one of these areas, pick the matching post and apply for that one.
Educational Qualification and Experience
| Post | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Senior Technical Officer | BE, B.Tech, MCA or M.Sc with specialization in Computer Science, Electronics or IT from a recognized institution, plus minimum 2 years experience in administration of IT infrastructure, networks, database, server administration, LAN, technical troubleshooting and supporting hardware |
| Senior Developer | Same degrees and specializations, plus minimum 2 years experience in software development including application design, deployment, testing and maintenance |
| Developer | Same degrees and specializations, plus minimum 1 year experience in software development |
| IT Assistant | BE, B.Tech, BCA or BSc (IT / Computer Science). The notice states no experience for this post |
The experience must be in the field named for your post, and it must be at least the number of years written in the table. If you are a fresh graduate, the IT Assistant post is the only one where the notice states no experience.
Conditions Every Candidate Must Meet
- You must be a citizen of India. The notice asks for citizenship, not Sikkim domicile.
- No person who has married someone with a living spouse, or who has a living spouse and married another person, shall be eligible for appointment as officer or staff of the High Court.
- You must attach one proof of citizenship: Birth Certificate, Passport, Certificate of Identification (only for Sikkim subjects), or a valid Voter ID card issued by the Election Commission of India.
- If you are already in Government service, you must apply through proper channel.
Age Limit
| Condition | Age |

The age limit is uniform for all communities of the State. The notice says upper-age relaxation will be the same as the State Government prescribes from time to time, but it gives no figures. So do not assume any relaxation in years; check the State rules or ask the Registry if you are near the limit. Your upper age is counted on 20 November 2026, so work it out for that day.
What is the Salary for Sikkim High Court IT Posts 2026?
| Post | Monthly Fixed Remuneration |
|---|---|
| Senior Technical Officer | ₹65,000 |
| Senior Developer | ₹55,000 |
| Developer | ₹50,000 |
| IT Assistant | ₹45,180 |
These are fixed monthly amounts, not a pay level, and the job is contractual for 1 year. The notice also says no TA/DA will be paid for appearing in the interview or viva-voce. Plan your travel costs with that in mind.
Because the job runs for 1 year on a contract under the e-Courts project, think about whether the term suits you before you apply. The notice does not say anything about extension of the contract, so we cannot tell you whether it can be renewed. A higher post pays more, but it also asks for more years of experience, so apply to the post you truly qualify for and not just the highest paid one.
What is the Selection Process for Sikkim High Court IT Recruitment 2026?
| Stage | Detail |
|---|---|

If those are also equal, the older candidate gets preference. The merit list will be put on the High Court website and on its notice boards.
The notice does not give the exam pattern, syllabus or exam dates. The list of accepted candidates and the admit card dates will be announced on the official website and in local dailies.
