What Is the Remuneration? – AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident 2026
Selected Senior Residents draw a consolidated ₹1,29,984 per month, as stated for this advertisement.
| Component | Figure |
|---|---|
| Nature of pay | Consolidated monthly remuneration |
| Amount | ₹1,29,984 |
| Tenure linked to pay | Six months, or earlier if a regular incumbent joins |
| Private practice | Not allowed |
This is a single consolidated figure, not an itemised Level-11 + DA + HRA + NPA slip. Take-home is therefore close to ₹1,29,984 before income tax, if no other deduction is notified in the appointment letter.
Rajkot is a Y-class city for Central HRA purposes. That classification matters only if a later regular/residency-scheme order switches you from consolidated pay to Level-11 + allowances.
Because the amount is consolidated, tax depends on your total income from all sources. Estimate TDS with the Income Tax Calculator. This calculator provides an indicative estimate. The appointment letter and Institute accounts rules prevail.
Hostel, canteen or transport is not guaranteed in the current notice. Facilities, if any, follow Institute terms after joining.
What Is the Application Fee?
| Category | Fee |
|---|---|
| General / OBC / EWS | ₹1,180 (including GST) |
| SC / ST | Nil |
| PwBD | Nil |
| Women (all categories) | Nil |
The fee is non-refundable. Pay only through the prescribed online payment link given in the form or notice. AIIMS Rajkot has used the AIIMS Rajkot eShiksha fee portal for Senior Resident collections in 2026. Confirm the live link inside the current Google Form before paying.
A second department needs a second fee, where payable. An earlier fee is not transferred.
How to Apply?
Applications are accepted only on the advertised Google Form. No hard copy is to be posted.
- Read Advertisement No. AIIMS/RJT/AS/SR/R-3/2026/3194 and match your qualification to one or two departments.
- Open the AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident 2026 online form (open until 03 October 2026, 11:00 AM).
- Fill in the personal, academic, registration and category fields. Resize photo or signature files with the Photo & Signature Resizer if the form asks for uploads.
- Select the department. Repeat the full form if you are applying to a second department.
- Pay ₹1,180 if you are a male General, OBC or EWS applicant. Keep the receipt number ready.
- Submit before 11:00 AM on 03 October 2026. The form does not allow correction after final submission.
- Save the submitted form and fee receipt. Carry both to verification and interview on 08 October 2026.
| Category of applicant | First step | Final step |
|---|---|---|
| All departments | Google Form application | Interview / written test at AIIMS Rajkot |
| Second department | Separate Google Form + separate fee | Appear as scheduled for that department |
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Treating the 11:00 AM cut-off on 03 October 2026 as end-of-day. Late forms are not accepted.
- Applying to three departments. The cap is two.
- Paying once and assuming both department forms are covered.
- Arriving for interview without NMC/State Council registration in original.
- Assuming a six-month contract will convert to the 1–3 year Residency Scheme posting automatically.
- Skipping the fee receipt. Exempt categories should still carry caste/PwBD/ID proof that justifies the nil fee.

અખિલ ભારતીય આયુર્વિજ્ઞાન સંસ્થા (AIIMS), રાજકોટે 25 વિભાગોમાં 64 સિનિયર રેસિડેન્ટ (નોન-એકેડેમિક) પદો માટે ઓનલાઇન અરજી મંગાવી છે. નિમણૂક છ મહિના અથવા નિયમિત ઉમેદવાર જોડાય ત્યાં સુધીની છે. અરજીની છેલ્લી તારીખ 03 ઑક્ટોબર 2026, સવારે 11:00 વાગ્યે છે. ઇન્ટરવ્યુ 08 ઑક્ટોબર 2026ના રોજ સવારે 9:00 વાગ્યે શરૂ થાય છે.

How Are Candidates Selected?
Selection is a staged process, not a single interview score.
- Online application screening against department-wise qualifications and age.
- Written test, if more than six candidates appear for that department (80% weight).
- Document verification for those who meet the written-test qualifying mark, or for all applicants if the department stays at six or fewer.
- Interview (20% weight when a written test is held; 100% when it is not).
- Medical fitness by the AIIMS Rajkot Medical Board before joining.
| Situation | Written test | Interview | Merit basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| More than 6 candidates in a department | Yes, 80% | Yes, 20% | Combined merit after qualifying the written paper |
| Up to 6 candidates in a department | No | Yes, 100% | Interview merit, subject to DV and roster |
Written test pattern
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Questions | 40 multiple-choice |
| Marks | 2 marks each; total 80 |
| Duration | 40 minutes |
| Negative marking | 0.50 mark for each wrong answer |
| Qualifying marks | UR/EWS 50%; OBC 45%; SC/ST/PwBD 40% |
Final appointment follows merit, document verification, reservation roster and medical fitness. No TA/DA is paid. Interview venue is not printed in the extracts used here; earlier AIIMS Rajkot SR interviews were held at the Office of the Dean (Academics), 1st Floor, Academic Block. Confirm the 08 October 2026 venue from the official website or call letter.
Why Does AIIMS Rajkot Matter?
All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rajkot is an Institute of National Importance under the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. The permanent campus is at Village Khandheri, Tehsil Paddhari, District Rajkot, Gujarat. The Institute runs MBBS, postgraduate and hospital services for Saurashtra.
Candidates search AIIMS Rajkot jobs because a new AIIMS gives hands-on caseload, teaching exposure and an INI line on the CV. They also search “AIIMS Rajkot career” and “AIIMS Rajkot vacancy 2026” when comparing newer campuses with older AIIMS and state medical colleges.
The honest limit is scale and tenure. This advertisement is a six-month bridge posting, not the longer Residency Scheme engagement used in some earlier Rajkot cycles. Night duties, growing infrastructure and no private practice are part of the bargain. See the Gujarat government jobs hub and the public healthcare sector page for related INI and state hospital drives, and the AIIMS Rajkot organisation page for Institute-level updates.
The SahisarkariJobs.in Analyst’s Take
Set this notice next to other new-AIIMS Senior Resident drives running in the same season, not next to IBPS or SSC. AIIMS Nagpur’s 72-post Senior Resident window (Advt. Admin-1/SR/26/04) closed around 17 September 2026 on a Residency Scheme footing. Rajkot’s R-3 list is smaller (64), shorter (six months), and pays a flat ₹1,29,984 instead of an itemised Level-11 + NPA package. Doctors comparing Rajkot with Nagpur, newer PMSSY campuses, or Gujarat medical-college SR posts should weigh tenure first, then department case mix.
Best fit: Specialists who want INI letterhead, teaching-hospital work and a defined monthly figure for a few months. General Surgery postgraduates targeting Neurosurgery, Paediatric Surgery, Urology or Burns seats through the alternate MS/DNB (Surgery) route also fit, as do M.Sc. + PhD candidates for Anatomy and Biochemistry.
Skip this if you need three-year residency continuity, NPS-style long tenure, or a guaranteed conversion to faculty. A six-month contract that can end when a regular incumbent joins will disrupt exam prep or a stable private practice.
Practical tip: Pick the two departments where your degree is first-listed, not the two with the most seats. Trauma and Emergency accepts several parent specialities, so competition there is broader than the “4 posts” line suggests. Carry original NMC/State Council registration on 08 October 2026; missing registration ends the interview before it starts.
What Documents Are Required?
Bring originals and one self-attested photocopy set.
- Printout of the submitted Google Form
- Fee receipt, if fee was payable
- Photo identity proof
- Class 10 certificate or mark sheet showing date of birth
- Class 12 mark sheet and certificate
- MBBS / BDS / M.Sc. mark sheets and degree
- FMGE certificate for foreign medical graduates
- MD / MS / DNB / MDS / M.Ch. / DrNB / PhD mark sheets and degree
- Postgraduate attempt certificate
- NMC, NDC, State Medical Council or Dental Council registration
- Experience certificate, if any
- Publication first pages (if you wish to table them)
- NOC for serving government / autonomous / PSU employees
- SC / ST / OBC-NCL / EWS / PwBD / Ex-serviceman certificate, as applicable
- Gazette or notarised affidavit for name change
OBC-NCL and EWS certificates must be in the current Government of India format. Failure to produce an essential original can cancel the candidature at verification.
Service Conditions
Appointment is full-time and contractual for six months, or until a regular incumbent joins, whichever is earlier. Private practice of any kind is prohibited. Selected doctors must be found medically fit by the AIIMS Rajkot Medical Board.

Bond amount, notice period, and leave rules are not spelt out in the extracts used for this article. Read the appointment order before you resign an existing post. Number of vacancies can be revised by the competent authority.
What Happens After Selection?
- Merit is drawn department-wise from written test + interview, or from interview alone where the written paper is skipped.
- Document verification confirms degree, registration, category and age. A discrepancy here stops the offer.
- The Medical Board certifies fitness. Unfit candidates are not joined.
- An offer/joining letter states the six-month (or shorter) tenure and the consolidated pay of ₹1,29,984.
- You join at AIIMS Rajkot, complete Institute joining formalities, and start departmental roster duties. No private practice.
- The contract ends at six months or when a regular Senior Resident joins, whichever is earlier. Extension is not promised in this advertisement.
Based on similar new-AIIMS SR cycles, expect a short gap between interview and joining rather than a multi-month wait. Career movement after this contract is your own next application: another SR cycle, faculty walk-in, or a state/central regular post.

FAQs – AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident 2026
What is the last date to apply for AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident 2026?
03 October 2026, 11:00 AM. The form is online only. No extension is announced as of 17 September 2026. Submit the Google Form and fee well before late morning on the closing day.
What is the age limit for AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident?
45 years for UR and EWS. OBC-NCL gets 3 extra years only on OBC reserved posts. SC/ST get 5 extra years only on reserved posts. PwBD gets 10 extra years, with age not exceeding 56. Use 03 October 2026 as the working cut-off until the PDF prints another date.
Is there an exam for AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident, or is it interview-based?
It depends on headcount. If more than six candidates appear in a department, there is a 40-question MCQ test of 80 marks in 40 minutes, with 0.50 negative marking, then an interview. If six or fewer appear, selection is interview only.
What is the salary of AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident?
₹1,29,984 per month consolidated, as written for this advertisement. It is not an itemised Level-11 slip in this notice. Tax depends on your total annual income. Confirm deductions from the appointment letter.
Can final-year students or result-awaited candidates apply for AIIMS Rajkot 2026?
The extracts used here do not give a separate result-awaited date. Safer to apply only if the MD/MS/DNB/M.Ch./DrNB or M.Sc.+Ph.D. is already awarded and can be produced at verification on 08 October 2026. Confirm the exact line from the official PDF.
Is AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident a permanent government job?
No. This cycle is a six-month contractual engagement, or shorter if a regular incumbent joins. It is not a pensionable regular post and is not the 1–3 year Residency Scheme tenure used in some earlier Rajkot advertisements.
Can candidates from other states apply for AIIMS Rajkot recruitment?
Yes. This is an all-India Institute of National Importance posting at Rajkot. No Gujarat domicile filter is stated. You must still hold the mapped NMC/NDC-recognised qualification and valid council registration.
Where will I be posted if I get selected for AIIMS Rajkot Senior Resident?
At AIIMS Rajkot, Village Khandheri, Tehsil Paddhari, District Rajkot, Gujarat. This advertisement is a single-campus posting. Department roster and night duties follow the allotted speciality.
Can I apply for two departments in this recruitment?
Yes. Maximum two departments. File a separate Google Form for each and pay a separate fee where payable. Carry both acknowledgements to verification. A third application is outside the stated cap.
Is NMC registration mandatory before the interview?
Yes for medical qualifications. Bring NMC, NDC, State Medical Council or Dental Council registration in original. Foreign graduates also need FMGE. Missing registration is treated as an essential-document failure.
What are the disadvantages of a six-month AIIMS Senior Resident contract?
The honest downside is tenure risk. The order can end at six months or earlier when a regular doctor joins. There is no private practice, no promised absorption, and little time to settle before the next job search. Use it as INI experience, not as a three-year plan.
What is the salary of a Senior Resident in new AIIMS institutes?
It varies by notice. Some new AIIMS advertise Level-11 + NPA + allowances under the Residency Scheme. This Rajkot cycle quotes a flat ₹1,29,984 consolidated. Always read the pay paragraph of the specific advertisement, not a previous year’s slip.
Do contract doctors in Gujarat government hospitals get the same tenure as AIIMS Senior Residents?
No. State medical college or hospital contracts follow state rules and often differ on length, pay and leave. An AIIMS Rajkot SR contract follows this Institute advertisement only: six months or until a regular incumbent joins, at the printed consolidated amount.
Final Checklist – Is This the Right Job for You?
- You meet the age and educational criteria as on 03 October 2026 (confirm the printed cut-off from the official PDF).
- You accept a contractual Senior Resident role for six months or until a regular incumbent joins.
- You can arrange original degrees, council registration and category certificates for 08 October 2026.
