What Is the Age Limit?

The lower age limit is 18 years for every post. Upper age limit for unreserved vacancies, as on 20 October 2026:

PostUpper age (UR)
Technical Assistant, Junior Engineer, Library & Information Assistant, SAS Assistant30 years
Senior Technician33 years
Pharmacist, Technician, Lab Attendant27 years

Relaxation for SC / ST / OBC-NCL / PwD / Ex-servicemen is “as per Govt. of India norms.” Standard GoI relaxation (labelled as such; confirm your exact entitlement from the rules cited in the notice): OBC-NCL +3 years, SC/ST +5 years, PwBD +10 years on the UR ceiling, with the usual extra years where PwBD is also SC/ST/OBC.

Departmental candidates on regular service in State/Central Government, PSUs, autonomous bodies, universities or government educational institutions, with 3 years’ continuous service, get 5 years, with NOC at document verification.

One-time relaxation up to 56 years is provided for NIT Agartala non-teaching staff working on ad-hoc/temporary/contractual/outsourced basis, with proof of association uploaded. Regular NIT Agartala staff appointed before the Model RRs (2012) implementation may appear irrespective of age and percentage, if otherwise eligible.

Reserved candidates who use age relaxation are considered only against their own reserved vacancies, even if CBT marks would have reached UR.

Examples (27-year UR ceiling used for Technician, Lab Attendant and Pharmacist):

✅ A 26-year-old UR candidate born on 20 October 2000 — eligible (within the 27-year limit as on 20 October 2026).

❌ A 28-year-old UR candidate born on 20 October 1998 — not eligible (exceeds the 27-year UR limit by 1 year).

Use our Age Eligibility Calculator to check instantly.

Where First Class is read as 6.5 CGPA or 60%, use our CGPA to Percentage Calculator. This calculator provides an indicative estimate. Use the conversion method specified in the notification — the official formula prevails.

What Is the Salary for Non-Teaching Posts in Tripura?

The advertisement prints 7th CPC Pay Levels only. The matrix basics below are the published 7th CPC Level entry cells, not take-home pay.

PostPay LevelPay-matrix starting basic
Technical Assistant, Junior Engineer, Library & Information Assistant, SAS AssistantLevel-6₹35,400
PharmacistLevel-5₹29,200
Senior TechnicianLevel-4₹25,500
TechnicianLevel-3₹21,700
Lab AttendantLevel-1₹18,000

DA, HRA and transport allowance follow central rules applicable to the Institute. This notice does not print an HRA city class for Jirania / Agartala, so no in-hand figure is calculated here.

Indicative gross/net for a central Level can be modelled on the 7th CPC Salary Calculator. Treat any output as illustrative. Actual pay is fixed in the appointment order.

Selected candidates serve one year of probation and are confirmed only after satisfactory completion and other NIT Statute requirements. NPS / pension language is not printed in this advertisement.

What Is the Application Fee?

CategoryFee
UR / OBC-NCL / EWS₹1,000
SC / ST₹750
PwD applying under the PwD categoryNil

The fee is non-refundable and paid online through the application link. One fee per post code. If NIT Agartala does not receive the fee, the form is summarily rejected. No late payment window is printed.

How to Apply?

  1. Open the NIT Agartala Group B & C registration page (live from 20 September 2026, 10:00 AM to 20 October 2026, 5:00 PM). The same link is listed under Recruitment on nita.ac.in.
  2. Register with an active mobile number and email. Keep both live until results.
  3. Fill one form per post code. Enter name, father’s name and date of birth exactly as on the matriculation certificate.
  4. Upload a colour passport photograph taken within the last three months, front view, without cap, scarf or sunglasses. Keep identical extra prints for the CBT. Use the Photo & Signature Resizer if the portal states a pixel or file-size limit.
  5. Upload all self-attested supporting documents as one PDF, maximum 10 MB.
  6. Pay the fee online in the same form. Print the submitted application and e-receipt.
  7. Repeat the full cycle if you are applying for a second post code.

Offline or downloaded paper forms are not accepted.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  1. Paying once and expecting it to cover two post codes.
  2. Uploading an old or unclear photograph (the notice allows rejection on that ground).
  3. Using an OBC-NCL or EWS certificate issued before 1 April 2025.
  4. Assuming admit-card issue means you have been found eligible.
  5. Sending queries to registrar@nita.ac.in or any mailbox other than the dedicated recruitment address.

How Are Candidates Selected?

DoPT OM No. F.39020/01/2013-Estt.(B)-Part dated 29 December 2015 is cited: no interview for Group B or Group C. Selection is a Computer Based Test. Final merit is based on CBT marks, subject to a qualifying skill test where the Institute prescribes one. This notice does not name which post codes carry a skill test.

CBT date, venue and slot will appear only on the Institute website. No TA/DA is paid.

No interview stage is mentioned in the current notification. Selection is based on CBT merit, then document verification, medical fitness and police verification.

The SahisarkariJobs.in Analyst’s Take

This is a campus-based NIT staff drive under the same 2019 Non-Teaching Recruitment Rules that the Ministry of Education notified for NITs. The closest comparison a candidate actually has open is another NIT’s Group B/C advertisement under those rules, not a state secretariat clerk exam. Pay Levels and essential qualifications in this file are those RR entries, not a local scale.

Best fit: diploma and ITI holders targeting Technician / Senior Technician, 10+2 Science candidates for Lab Attendant, and First Class engineering or library / physical-education graduates who want a regular NIT campus post in Tripura without sitting an interview.

Who should skip: anyone who cannot serve at Jirania, anyone unwilling to risk two CBT slots clashing if they file two codes, and serving employees who cannot produce an NOC at verification. Pharmacist applicants without live Pharmacy Act registration should not file.

Practical tip: Treat the form as final. The Institute will not scrutinise your degree before the admit card. If your branch, trade or “relevant field” is even slightly off the RR wording, write to recruitment.groupbc2026@mail.nita.ac.in and keep the reply before you pay.

What Happens After Selection?

  1. CBT merit list is published on nita.ac.in after any prescribed skill test is qualified.
  2. Document verification with originals. Mismatch or missing papers ends the candidature there.
  3. Medical examination before the District Medical Board and a fitness certificate, as printed in the notice.
  4. Verification of qualifications, community certificates, conduct and police antecedents. False claims can cancel the offer even after joining.
  5. Offer and one-year probation under the NIT Act and Statutes. Confirmation follows satisfactory probation and other rules the Institute applies.

Allotment of department/centre / section is the Institute’s decision. Annexure C of the advertisement only flags an indicative split for some codes; it is not a posting-choice form.
