The Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) has announced a major recruitment drive for 1,260 posts across departments and bodies under the Government of NCT of Delhi. Advertisement No. 06/2026 covers Junior Engineer (Electric/Electrical) and Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS) positions, including MTS Aaya (Female).
The online application window opens on 12 November 2026 at 12 noon and closes on 11 December 2026 at 11:59 PM. Candidates should check the department-specific qualification and experience requirements before applying because the conditions are not identical across all posts.
The vacancy figures are tentative and may be revised by the recruiting departments. The notification reports 537 UR, 325 OBC, 181 SC, 94 ST and 123 EWS vacancies overall. PwBD, ex-servicemen and meritorious sportsperson figures are shown as inclusive horizontal reservations and should not be added again to the grand total.
Educational Qualification and Experience
Junior Engineer (Post Code 809/26)
There are 185 JE vacancies across five departments. The required qualification depends on the department:
NDMC – 67 posts: Degree in Electrical Engineering, or a recognised Electrical Engineering diploma with two years of professional experience in the electrical engineering field.
Delhi Agricultural Marketing Board – 3 posts: Diploma in Electrical Engineering or equivalent, with two years of experience in electrical installation or maintenance work.
MCD – 26 posts: Degree in Electrical Engineering, or a recognised diploma plus two years of professional experience as an Electrical Engineer after completing the qualifying diploma examination.
Delhi Transco Limited – 75 posts: Degree or diploma in Electrical Engineering. The notification does not prescribe essential experience for this department.
DUSIB – 14 posts: Diploma in Electrical Engineering from a recognised institution or equivalent. No essential experience is listed.
Applicants must read the relevant department’s recruitment rules in the official notice. A diploma without experience may meet the requirement for one department but not another.
Multi-Tasking Staff (Post Code 810/26)
Most MTS departments require Matriculation (Class 10) or an equivalent pass from a recognised board or institution. For the DUSIB MTS post, the notification also expressly accepts an ITI qualification from a recognised institute. The MTS Aaya post is specifically for female candidates.
No essential prior work experience is prescribed for the MTS posts in the vacancy details. Candidates should still check the exact educational requirement attached to their preferred department.
Age Limit
Junior Engineer: The upper age limit varies by department. It is 18–32 years for the NDMC post and generally 18–27 years for the other listed JE departments, subject to the specific recruitment rules.
MTS: Generally 18–27 years. The notification provides for certain departmental-candidate relaxations, subject to the stated conditions.
Age cut-off date: 11 December 2026.
Category-based age concessions apply under the rules specified in Advertisement 06/2026. Candidates should consult the age-relaxation table in the original notification and verify the applicable conditions for their post and category.
Junior Engineer – Delhi Agricultural Marketing Board: The notice specifies ₹9,300–₹34,800 plus Grade Pay ₹4,200.
MTS: Pay Level 1, ₹18,000–₹56,900.
These are notified pay scales, not guaranteed in-hand salaries. Actual take-home pay depends on the applicable allowances, deductions and service conditions of the employing department.
Application Fee
The application fee is ₹100. Women candidates and candidates belonging to the SC, ST, PwBD and eligible ex-servicemen categories are exempt from payment. The notification specifies SBI e-pay as the payment method. Fees once paid are non-refundable. The notice also contains a specific restriction on fee concession for certain ex-servicemen who have already secured regular civil employment after using the relevant re-employment reservation benefit.
Selection Process and Examination Pattern
DSSSB will conduct separate examination schemes for the two post codes:
Junior Engineer, Post Code 809/26: Two-tier technical examination. Tier-I is a 200-question, 200-mark paper of two hours, divided between general subjects and the relevant technical subject. Tier-II is a 150-question, 200-mark paper lasting two hours and 30 minutes, with technical questions and application-based questions.
MTS, Post Code 810/26: One-tier general examination with 200 multiple-choice questions for 200 marks and a two-hour duration. The five areas are General Awareness, Reasoning, Arithmetical and Numerical Ability, Hindi and English.
Negative marking applies: 0.25 marks are deducted for each incorrect one-mark question and 0.50 marks for each incorrect two-mark question. The notification sets category-wise minimum qualifying marks. The Board may normalise scores where required, and the examination dates will be announced separately.
For JE, Tier-I is used to shortlist candidates for Tier-II; the combined Tier-II marks determine the final merit. For MTS, the examination marks form the basis of the final merit list, subject to the prescribed qualifying criteria. Shortlisted candidates may have to complete e-dossier and document-verification stages. Department preferences must be submitted when DSSSB calls for e-dossiers, and the notification says confirmed preferences cannot later be changed.
