Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Posting the form on 02.11.2026 itself. That is the date it must reach Ichapur, and AWTM takes no responsibility for postal delay.
- Going by the old “30 days from Employment News” wording. The corrigendum replaces it with the fixed date 02.11.2026.
- Getting the Demand Draft made in any name other than Ordnance Factories Institute of Learning, Ishapore.
- Leaving out the bank detail: the draft is payable at State Bank of India, Ishapore, Branch Code 01797.
- Sending a Demand Draft when you are exempt. SC/ST, ex-servicemen and physically handicapped candidates pay no fee.
- Not checking the AWEIL notice board again; any further corrigendum will be put there.
