Eligibility
The two groups of posts have different requirements, so read your row carefully. For every Technician B post you need a 10th (SSLC/Matriculation) pass plus an ITI/NTC/NAC from NCVT in the exact trade you are applying for: Fitter for Fitter, Electrician for Electrician, and so on. The 24 electronics seats accept the Electronics Mechanic, Power Electronics Systems, Consumer Electronics Appliances, Instrument Mechanic and Industrial Electronics trades. Check that your certificate is NCVT and not only a state council (SCVT) one, because the notification names NCVT. The Driver A posts (Light Vehicle 03, Staff Car 02, Heavy Vehicle 10) ask for a 10th pass or equivalent; the summary does not list licence type or driving experience, so open the official notification before you apply.
You must be between 18 and 35 years old, counted as on 13 November 2026, which is also the last date to apply. Reserved categories get extra relaxation under ISRO's recruitment rules, but the summary does not spell out the years, so confirm your category's upper limit in the notification before paying the fee.

A skill or trade test is not mentioned in the summary, so read the notification to see whether one follows the CBT for your post. Revise your ITI trade theory and basic 10th-level subjects while you wait for the date.
How to Apply
The fee is ₹500 for all candidates as shown in the summary, and ₹400 of it is refunded only to those who actually sit the CBT. Fee can be paid online or offline, and the fee deadline is also 13 November 2026. Before you open the Apply Online link, keep these ready: 10th marksheet, ITI/NTC/NAC certificate with trade name, category certificate if any, a recent photo and signature, and a bank account for the refund. Fill the form, pick the correct post code, pay, and save the final printout.
