Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Submitting only the online Google form and skipping the hard copy — the notification states clearly that candidature will not be considered if the signed application does not reach the Recruitment Cell by Speed/Registered Post by 13.10.2026.
- Uploading certificates as separate files instead of combining them into a single PDF in the exact order listed in the notification.
- Applying once for two different posts — a separate application and a separate fee are required for each designation or department.
- Using an OBC non-creamy-layer certificate issued outside the 01.04.2026 to 31.03.2027 window, or one whose sub-caste does not match the Central List — candidature will be rejected.
- Counting experience from before the qualifying degree — experience is counted only after the prescribed qualification is obtained, in an NMC-recognised department.
- Forgetting the Annexure-B PowerPoint presentation, or forwarding a deputation application without vigilance clearance and APAR/ACR dossiers for the last 05 years.
- Assuming details can be corrected later — no change of information is entertained after submission, and the fee is non-refundable.
