What Posts Are Available? – IIT Hyderabad Vacancy & Eligibility 2026
Only one designation is notified. The seat sits in the Office of Alumni and Corporate Relations and reports to the Dean, Alumni and Corporate Relations.
The role is partnership operations, not a teaching post and not a regular Group A officer cadre. Daily work covers MoUs, vendor and alumni liaison, file notes, visit coordination, fund-utilisation tracking with the ACR accountant, and updates on giving/alumni webpages.
| Post Name | Vacancies | Qualification | Pay / Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Senior Consultant – Corporate Relations | 01 (UR) | BA / B.Sc / B.Com / BBA / BCA + 5 yrs relevant exp or MA / M.Sc / M.Com / MBA / MCA + 3 yrs relevant exp | ₹1,00,000/month consolidated; 11 months |
Note: Category breakup is UR only. Horizontal reservation age relaxation follows Government of India rules where applicable.
Eligibility – Education, Experience and Cut-off
Essential criteria (either one):
- Criteria-I: Bachelor’s degree in any discipline from a recognised board/university/institute + minimum 05 years of post-qualification relevant experience in corporate relations, fundraising or administrative roles.
- Criteria-II: Master’s degree in any discipline + minimum 03 years of the same relevant experience.
Experience must be after the qualifying degree. The experience letter must be on letterhead, with designation, period, nature of work, pay, date of issue, and stamp/signature of the issuing authority. Payslips, office orders or appointment letters alone are not accepted as experience proof.
The Institute may relax experience for a highly meritorious candidate. It may also set a higher shortlisting cut-off if applications are many.
What Is the Age Limit?
| Category | Maximum age as on 22 September 2026 |
|---|---|
| UR / EWS | 40 years |
| OBC (NCL) | 43 years (if claiming applicable horizontal/category relaxation as per GoI and if eligible under the notified reservation framework) |
| SC / ST | 45 years (same caveat: relaxation applies where GoI horizontal/category rules cover this engagement) |
| PwBD | 50 years (UR PwBD +10; other combinations follow GoI stacking rules) |
The notification states a 40-year upper limit and adds that relaxation applies “in cases of horizontal reservation as per GoI rules.” It does not publish a separate category-wise age table. Treat UR as 40 unless you hold a valid claim the Institute accepts.
Examples:
✅ A 39-year-old UR candidate born on 23 September 1986 — eligible (within the 40-year limit as on 22 September 2026).
❌ A 41-year-old UR candidate born on 22 September 1985 — not eligible (exceeds maximum age by 1 year).

What Is the Senior Consultant Remuneration in Hyderabad?
| Component | Amount |
|---|---|
| Consolidated remuneration | ₹1,00,000 per month |
| DA / HRA / TA | Not separately payable (pay is consolidated) |
| Statutory deductions | Applicable (TDS and other statutory cuts) |
| Indicative in-hand | About ₹85,000–₹92,000/month after TDS, depending on tax regime and other income |
This is contractual consolidated pay, not 7th CPC Level pay. There is no Dearness Allowance slab, no city-class HRA and no NPS contribution mentioned in the notice.
Medical cover from the Institute is limited to emergency OPD (₹100 normal / ₹200 specialist; rates can change). No medical reimbursement. You must buy a valid health insurance policy for the full engagement period and submit a copy at joining.
Campus residence is not a right. Allotment, if any, is case-to-case, subject to availability and licence fee.
Estimate TDS with the Income Tax Calculator. This is an indicative figure. Your actual tax depends on total annual income from all sources.
What Is the Application Fee?
| Category | Fee |
|---|---|
| All categories | Not mentioned in the official notification |
No payment portal, GST line or exemption table appears in Advertisement IITH/CS/58. Do not pay anyone who claims a “processing fee” on phone or WhatsApp.
How to Apply?
Applications are accepted only through the IITH careers job link. Printouts posted to campus will be rejected.
- Open the IIT Hyderabad Senior Consultant 2026 apply page (portal also listed under Temporary Positions on the IITH careers page).
- Read Annexure-I instructions on the portal before you start.
- Register/log in and fill personal, education and experience fields exactly as on certificates.
- Resize photo and signature with the Photo & Signature Resizer if the portal asks for uploads in a set pixel or KB limit.
- Upload degree certificates, date-of-birth proof, and proper experience letters (not appointment orders alone).
- Submit online on or before 22 September 2026. Save the acknowledgement.
- Do not send a hard copy unless the Institute later asks shortlisted candidates to bring originals.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Uploading appointment letters or payslips instead of a stamped experience certificate that states designation, period, duties and pay.
- Counting part-time jobs toward the 5-year or 3-year requirement.
- Treating this as a continuation of Advt. IITH/CS/53. That was a separate cycle; you must file a fresh CS/58 application.
- Waiting until 22 September 2026 evening. Portal load and document rejects leave no buffer.
- Assuming campus housing, CGHS-style medical cover or a path to regular IITH staff cadre. None of those are promised.
ఐఐటీ హైదరాబాద్ సీనియర్ కన్సల్టెంట్ భర్తీ 2026 – 1 కార్పొరేట్ రిలేషన్స్ పోస్టుకు ఆన్లైన్ దరఖాస్తు
ఐఐటీ హైదరాబాద్ (కంది, సంగారెడ్డి) అలుమ్నై అండ్ కార్పొరేట్ రిలేషన్స్ కార్యాలయంలో సీనియర్ కన్సల్టెంట్ – కార్పొరేట్ రిలేషన్స్ పోస్టుకు IITH/CS/58 నోటిఫికేషన్ విడుదలైంది. ఒక యూఆర్ సీటు. కాంట్రాక్ట్ 11 నెలలు. నెలకు ₹1,00,000 కన్సాలిడేటెడ్ వేతనం. దరఖాస్తు 02 సెప్టెంబర్ నుంచి 22 సెప్టెంబర్ 2026 వరకు మాత్రమే ఆన్లైన్.
ఎవరు దరఖాస్తు చేయవచ్చు?
ఏ విభాగంలోనైనా బ్యాచిలర్ డిగ్రీతో కార్పొరేట్ రిలేషన్స్, ఫండ్ రైజింగ్ లేదా అడ్మిన్ పనిలో 5 సంవత్సరాల అనుభవం ఉండాలి. లేదా మాస్టర్స్ ఉంటే 3 సంవత్సరాల అదే రకం అనుభవం చాలు. పార్ట్టైమ్ సర్వీస్ లెక్కలోకి రాదు. గరిష్ట వయసు 22 సెప్టెంబర్ 2026 నాటికి 40 ఏళ్లు. తెలంగాణ డొమిసైల్ తప్పనిసరి కాదు.
వేతనం, ఎంపిక ఎలా ఉంటాయి?
నెలకు లక్ష రూపాయలు. డీఏ, హెచ్ఆర్ఏ వేరుగా లేవు. టీడీఎస్ కట్ అవుతుంది. ఎంపిక రాత పరీక్ష / స్కిల్ టెస్ట్ / ఇంటర్వ్యూ ద్వారా కంది క్యాంపస్లో జరుగుతుంది. టీఏ/డీఏ లేదు. ఇది రెగ్యులర్ ప్రభుత్వ ఉద్యోగం కాదు. పొడిగింపు పనితీరు మీద ఆధారపడి ఉంటుంది.
ఎలా అప్లై చేయాలి?
https://careers.iith.ac.in/jobs/50 లింక్లో మాత్రమే దరఖాస్తు చేయండి. హార్డ్ కాపీ పంపితే రిజెక్ట్ అవుతుంది. అనుభవ సర్టిఫికేట్ లెటర్హెడ్పై, హోదా, కాలం, పని వివరాలతో ఉండాలి. అధికారిక సమాచారం iith.ac.in/careers పేజీలో చూడండి.
How Are Candidates Selected?
Selection is a multi-stage process, not an automatic appointment on paper merit.
- Online application screening against age, degree, experience letters and uploaded certificates.
- Institute shortlisting. IITH may raise the cut-off if applications are high.
- Written test and/or skill test and/or interview at IIT Hyderabad, Kandi, Sangareddy.
- Document verification of originals against the online form.
- Pre-engagement formalities: medical fitness, health-insurance copy, and a relieving letter if you are already employed.
Exact paper pattern, marks and negative marking are not specified in the current notification. Treat any “exam syllabus” circulating online as unofficial until IITH issues a call letter.
No interview stage is guaranteed as the only filter. The notice lists written test/skill test/interview as the mode. No TA/DA is paid for attending selections.
Calling you for a test does not mean selection. False claims found later lead to cancellation even after an offer.
Why Does IIT Hyderabad Matter?
Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad is an Institute of National Importance under the Ministry of Education. The campus is at Kandi in Sangareddy district, Telangana, on the Hyderabad growth corridor.
The Office of Alumni and Corporate Relations handles industry MoUs, CSR and fundraising pipelines, alumni giving pages, and visit protocols. This consultant seat supports that office, not a teaching department. Related pages: IIT Hyderabad organisation hub, higher education sector, Telangana government jobs.
Why Candidates Search IITH Corporate Relations Roles
Candidates search IIT Hyderabad jobs because the campus brand helps a CV in industry liaison and CSR. The ₹1 lakh consolidated figure is higher than many state-university contract admin posts. The work itself is concrete: MoU drafting, visit logistics, file notes and fund-tracking rather than vague “coordination.”
The honest downside is tenure. Eleven months, one-month notice either side, no regular cadre claim, limited OPD medical support, and no promised campus house. If you need pensionable IIT staff status, watch regular Non-Faculty advertisements such as NF/20, not this contract.
The SahisarkariJobs.in Analyst’s Take
This is the second 2026 outing for the same title. Advt. IITH/CS/53 (May 2026) asked for eight years after a bachelor’s degree or five after a master’s, with a 45-year cap. CS/58 drops those bars to five / three years and 40 years. The closest tabs a candidate will have open are IIT Madras Corporate Relations Officer notices and other IIT Alumni & Corporate Relations contract seats, not IBPS SO or a state PSC clerk drive.
Best fit: mid-career partnership, CSR or institute-admin professionals who already draft MoUs, keep CRM/Excel trackers and can sit six days a week on a Kandi campus calendar. A master’s with three solid years in fundraising beats a generic ten-year clerical file.
Who should skip: anyone treating ₹1 lakh as a stepping stone to a permanent IITH Assistant Registrar cadre. The notice is explicit: no right accrues from this engagement. Also skip if you cannot fund your own health insurance or cannot attend tests at Sangareddy without TA.

Practical tip: Rewrite your experience letters before you apply. IITH will reject payslips and appointment orders. Ask your current HR for a letter that names corporate relations/fundraising/administration duties, dates and pay on letterhead. That single document decides shortlisting more than the rest of the form.
What Documents Are Required?
Carry self-attested copies and originals when called:
- Online application acknowledgement
- Photo ID (Aadhaar / PAN / Passport)
- Date-of-birth proof
- Bachelor’s and/or master’s marksheets and degree
- Experience certificates in the prescribed style (letterhead, designation, period, nature of work, pay, stamp)
- Caste / PwBD / other horizontal-reservation certificates if claimed
- Recent photograph and signature as uploaded
- Relieving letter from current employer at joining (if selected)
- Valid health insurance policy copy at joining
- Medical fitness certificate as required in pre-engagement formalities
Document alert: Experience letters without issuing officer’s name, designation and stamp are a frequent reason for rejection in IITH staff drives. Cloud screenshots of emails are not substitutes.
Service Conditions
- Initial tenure: 11 months. Extension only if both performance and the Institute need to hold.
- Termination: one month’s notice from either side during the contract.
- Working hours: 8 hours a day, 6 days a week; weekend or holiday duty if the Dean / Faculty-in-Charge requires it.
- No automatic campus quarter.
- Medical: emergency OPD only; no reimbursement.
- Own health insurance mandatory.
- Indian citizens only.
- Legal disputes: High Court of Telangana.
- Updates only on the Institute website.
✅ Confirmed: 11-month contract, ₹1,00,000 consolidated, UR vacancy, written test/skill test/interview mode, apply URL careers.iith.ac.in/jobs/50.
❓ Not specified: exam syllabus, marks split, application fee table, exact interview date.
What Happens After Selection?
- Shortlist and call letter go to the registered email for the written test/skill test/interview at Kandi.
- Attend selection at your own cost. No TA/DA.
- On provisional selection, originals are checked against the online form.
- Complete joining papers: medical fitness, insurance copy, and relieving letter if you are in another job.
- Report to the Office of Alumni and Corporate Relations and work under the Dean (ACR) on MoUs, visits, files and fund coordination.
- Contract runs 11 months. Extension is discretionary. Exit is possible with one month’s notice. There is no absorption clause in this advertisement.
Typical IIT contract staff cycles from application to joining often take 6–10 weeks after the close date, but IITH has not published a calendar for CS/58.

Q2: What is the age limit for IIT Hyderabad Senior Consultant?
A: 40 years as of 22 September 2026 for UR. Relaxation applies only where horizontal reservation under GoI rules is accepted. Check the PDF before assuming OBC/SC/ST extra years on this contract seat.
Q3: Is there an exam for IIT Hyderabad Senior Consultant, or is it interview-based?
A: The notice lists a written test/skill test/interview. IITH decides the exact mix after shortlisting. Pattern and marks are not in the current PDF. Tests are at the Kandi campus. No TA/DA.
Q4: What is the salary of IIT Hyderabad Senior Consultant?
A: ₹1,00,000 per month, consolidated. After TDS, many candidates may take home roughly ₹85,000–₹92,000. There is no separate DA or HRA. Statutory deductions apply.
Q5: Can final-year students or result-awaited candidates apply for IITH 2026?
A: No. Qualification and post-qualification experience are reckoned on 22 September 2026. You need the degree already awarded and experience after that degree. Result-awaited status is not mentioned as eligible.
Q6: Is IIT Hyderabad Senior Consultant a permanent government job?
A: No. It is an 11-month contract in the ACR office, extendable only if the Institute needs you. The notice says no claim to regular IITH employment arises from this engagement.
Q7: Can candidates from other states apply for IITH recruitment?
A: Yes. Indian citizens from any state can apply. No Telangana domicile condition is written in Advertisement IITH/CS/58.
Q8: Where will I be posted if I get selected for IIT Hyderabad Senior Consultant?

Q10: What are the disadvantages of this IITH contract?

Q13: Can I apply if I already applied under IITH CS/53?
