DSSSB MTS and JE Electrical Recruitment 2026: 1,260 Posts (Advt 06/2026)

DSSSB MTS Recruitment 2026 is part of a combined Delhi notice for 1,260 posts: 1,075 Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS) posts and 185 Junior Engineer (Electrical) posts. The online form runs from 12 November 2026 (12 noon) to 11 December 2026 (11:59 PM) on dsssbonline.nic.in. MTS needs only a Class 10 pass and an age of 18 to 27. The JE posts need an electrical engineering diploma or degree (two employers list a diploma only). All rules are checked on 11 December 2026, the last day of the form.

DSSSB Advt 06/2026 in two post codes: 810/26 for MTS and 809/26 for JE

The notice has two separate exams. Post code 810/26 covers every MTS post. Post code 809/26 covers every JE post. Each post code has its own exam and its own papers.

The total is 1,260 posts: 537 Unreserved (UR), 325 OBC, 181 SC, 94 ST and 123 EWS (economically weaker section). These counts include 52 posts for persons with benchmark disability (PwBD), 107 for ex-servicemen and 52 for meritorious sports persons. DSSSB calls the numbers tentative. The departments sent them, and they can go up or down later.

DSSSB MTS Recruitment 2026: 1,075 Level 1 posts in eight Delhi offices

All MTS posts are Group C (non-gazetted staff) posts in Pay Level 1, with a pay scale of Rs 18,000 to Rs 56,900. A “Pay Level” is a row in the 7th Pay Commission pay table. Level 1 starts at a basic pay of Rs 18,000 a month. Allowances such as DA (dearness allowance) and HRA (house rent allowance) are paid on top. The notice does not print them, so this page does not estimate the take-home pay.

The Directorate of Education alone has 996 of the 1,075 MTS posts. So most MTS selections will be with the Directorate of Education. The 239 Aaya posts are for women only.

Matriculation for eight MTS entries, Class 10 or ITI at DUSIB

Eight of the nine MTS entries ask for Matriculation (Class 10) or an equivalent pass. DUSIB is the one exception in wording. It accepts a Class 10 pass or an ITI (Industrial Training Institute) pass from a recognised institute. DUSIB also adds a compulsory induction training of at least two weeks during probation.

The age limit for every MTS post is 18 to 27 years on 11 December 2026. Seven of the nine entries also print a line for departmental candidates. A departmental candidate is a regular government servant with at least 3 years of continuous service in the same or an allied cadre. Such a candidate can apply up to age 40 (43 for OBC, 45 for SC or ST). The Principal Accounts Office and Chief Electoral Officer entries do not print that line.

Five JE (Electrical) employers, three different rules, one 809/26 exam

The 185 JE posts sit in five bodies. They share one exam but not one rulebook. Pay, age and the experience rule change from one employer to the next.

Two rows stand out. DTL pays the most, at Level 8, and asks for no experience. A fresh diploma holder can aim for it. NDMC allows the highest age, 32. MCD and DUSIB add up to 5 years for government servants (MCD also for its own staff). Para 8 also gives up to 5 years for Group B posts to departmental candidates with 3 years of continuous service in the same or an allied cadre. A fresh diploma holder with no work experience cannot pick NDMC, MCD or DAMB. Those three ask a diploma holder for 2 years of experience.

The JE posts have no seats for ex-servicemen or sports persons. They have 9 PwBD seats: NDMC 4, DTL 3, MCD 1, DAMB 1 and DUSIB none. No JE post is marked suitable for blind or low-vision candidates. DTL is narrower still: among hearing-impaired candidates it lists only “hard of hearing”, not deaf.

DSSSB office preferences open only at the e-dossier stage and lock once confirmed

You do not choose an office in the application form. DSSSB asks for your office preferences later, when it calls for the e-dossier. The e-dossier is the online upload of your documents after the exam. The notice sets these rules for that step:

• You must give at least one preference in the time allowed. If you miss it, you are not considered for selection.
• Preferences cannot be changed once you confirm them. There is no second chance to add or edit them.
• DSSSB gives you the first office on your list that is still free at your merit rank. After that, your lower choices are not looked at.
• If the office finds you are not eligible for the post you chose, your application for that post code is rejected. DSSSB will not move you to another office.
• There is no waiting list under this combined exam.

So check each office’s rules before you list it. By the printed rules, a JE diploma holder without experience fits only DTL and DUSIB. A 30-year-old UR candidate for JE with no government or contract service, and no PwBD or ex-servicemen relaxation, fits only the NDMC age limit. NDMC still needs a degree, or a diploma plus 2 years of experience.

OBC from outside Delhi counts as UR unless a pre-1993 Delhi relative’s certificate applies

Candidates from other states should read this rule closely. Only OBC (Delhi) candidates get OBC reservation and the 3-year OBC age relaxation. OBC candidates from outside Delhi are treated as Unreserved and must apply under UR.

Two kinds of OBC certificate are accepted. The first is one issued by the Delhi government’s Revenue Department. The second is issued outside Delhi. It counts only if it was based on the Delhi OBC certificate of your father, sibling or real paternal uncle. That relative must have lived in Delhi before 8 September 1993.

Your OBC certificate must be issued on or before 11 December 2026. The non-creamy layer (NCL) certificate, which shows your family is outside the better-off OBC group, must be issued between 1 April 2026 and 11 December 2026. For EWS, the Income and Asset Certificate must be valid for 2026-27, based on 2025-26 income.

Age relaxation on 11 December 2026 for DSSSB MTS and JE

All MTS posts are Group C and all JE posts are Group B. So the rows marked “Group C only” below help MTS applicants, not JE applicants.

Contract workers get one more relaxation in some offices. If you worked on contract in the same department, the time served is added to the upper age. The limit is 5 years, and you must have worked at least 180 days in each year counted. The notice prints this for NDMC, MCD and DUSIB JE, and for the Directorate of Education and DUSIB MTS posts.

Rs 100 through SBI e-pay, waived for women, SC, ST, PwBD and ex-servicemen

The fee is Rs 100, paid only through SBI e-pay. Women, SC, ST, PwBD and ex-servicemen candidates pay no fee. Ex-servicemen re-employed in a regular civil job through the quota lose the fee waiver. Those in a Group C or D job also lose the ex-servicemen reservation. They can still use the ex-servicemen age relaxation to seek a higher post. The fee is not refunded in any case.

200-mark MTS paper, two JE tiers, 0.25 or 0.50 off per wrong answer

The exam is a CBT (computer based test), taken on a computer at a centre. Centres can be in Delhi/NCR or in other states, as DSSSB decides. Questions come in Hindi and English, except in the language sections.

MTS (one tier): one 2-hour paper of 200 questions for 200 marks. It has five parts of 40 marks each: General Awareness, Reasoning, Arithmetic, Hindi and English. The final merit list comes from this paper alone.

JE (two tiers): Tier I is a 2-hour paper of 200 marks. Section A has the same five general parts at 20 marks each. Section B has 100 questions on electrical engineering. Tier I only shortlists candidates for Tier II. Tier II lasts 2 hours 30 minutes. Part I has 100 one-mark questions on electrical engineering. Part II has 50 two-mark questions that test how you apply ideas. You must clear the pass mark in Part I and in Part II separately. Your Tier II total then decides the final merit.

A wrong answer costs 0.25 marks on a one-mark question and 0.50 marks on a two-mark question. The minimum pass mark is 40% for UR and EWS, 35% for OBC (Delhi) and 30% for SC, ST and PwBD. Ex-servicemen get 5% off their category’s mark, but never below 30%. For JE, Tier I has no separate pass mark for Section A, but Section B and the total must clear it.

If two candidates in the same category tie, the older one ranks higher. If the birth dates also match, the candidate whose first name comes first in English alphabetical order ranks higher. In JE Tier I, more marks in Section B break the tie first. The notice dated 6 November 2026 gives no exam date. DSSSB says it will announce the date only on its own website.

Class 10 roll number, Aadhaar and a 30-minute timer on dsssbonline.nic.in

1. Register once on dsssbonline.nic.in (the OARS portal) if you have never registered. One person may hold only one registration.
2. Use an email ID and mobile number that are not already on OARS. The portal rejects ones already registered there.
3. Enter your Class 10 roll number as numbers only. For 12CSC0204, type 120204. Do not add leading zeros.
4. Upload a photo ID (PAN, voter card, driving licence or passport) as a JPG of 15 KB to 60 KB. If you give your Aadhaar number, no scanned ID is needed.
5. Check your name, gender and father’s name before you submit. They cannot be edited later.
6. Log in, pick the post code you want (810/26 for MTS, 809/26 for JE), and pay Rs 100 if your category pays.
7. Recheck every field. After submission, DSSSB allows no change, not even of category.

The registration screen times out after 30 minutes, so keep your details ready. The photo must be a recent, clear colour photo with a plain white or off-white background. Blurred photos or signatures lead to rejection.

On exam day, wear light half-sleeve clothes without big buttons or badges, with salwar or trousers. Wear slippers or low-heel sandals. Shoes are not allowed. Do not carry a mobile phone into the centre. Even a switched-off phone on the premises leads to cancellation.

Supreme Court attendant and UPSSSC JE posts for the same DSSSB readers

For more openings in the capital, see Delhi government jobs and other state selection board recruitments. Class 10 pass readers can browse jobs for 10th pass candidates, including the Supreme Court Junior Court Attendant recruitment. Electrical diploma holders can also look at diploma-level government jobs and the UPSSSC JE Electrical recruitment.

OBC (Delhi), non-creamy layer and EWS papers to date-check for Advt 06/2026

1. Pick your post code and read your target office’s row. Check age, experience and the Class 10 or diploma rule against 11 December 2026.
2. If you are OBC from outside Delhi, check your certificate against the two accepted types. If it does not fit, apply as UR.
3. Get your non-creamy layer or EWS certificate dated within the window before 11 December 2026. Then submit the form well before 11:59 PM on 11 December 2026.
