Central Bank of India Counselor (FLC) Bhopal Raisen Recruitment 2026

Central Bank of India Counselor (FLC) Bhopal Raisen Recruitment 2026

The Central Bank of India, Regional Office Bhopal, has invited applications for the post of Incharge/Counselor for a Financial Literacy Centre (FLC) at Raisen, on contract for one year. The notice is for the single FLC centre at Raisen. No vacancy count is printed in the notice, so no number is stated here. The notice itself was read from a mirror copy of the official notice hosted by FreeJobAlert — the Bank's own website could not be read directly — and this basis is stated plainly. The notice states the advertisement is displayed on the Bank's website.

Who can apply

You need to be a graduate in any discipline from a recognised university and computer literate, with basic knowledge of MS Office, the internet, and typing in the local language. Retired or VRS-opted bank officials of Scale I and above from a Nationalized Bank, including SBI and RRBs, are preferred; OR ex-servicemen and others (for example an ex-Government school teacher) having banking knowledge and knowledge of financial services and having completed the relevant IIBF certification course. You need 10 years' experience as an Officer or permanent employee, an unblemished service record with a service certificate from your previous employer, and residence in the same state, preferably the same or a nearby district. Excellent communication skill in the local language is essential.

Age limit

Above 45 years and less than 65 years, and should possess good health. No cut-off date for counting the age is printed in the notice.

Pay

Rs. 25,000 per month, or the amount equivalent to last pay and allowances drawn less the initial pension fixed before commutation plus relief, whichever is lower, plus a lump sum of Rs. 1,000 per month towards mobile, conveyance and other expenses. The last-pay-less-pension formula applies only to pension-co-opted retired bank officials of a Nationalized Bank; a non-pensioner gets Rs. 25,000 per month plus Rs. 1,000 per month. No other benefits are paid. The contract is for one year, with 15 days of leave per year and a maximum of 2 days per month; renewal may be possible at the Bank's sole discretion.

Fee

There is no application fee prescribed — section 8 of the notice says so expressly, so the fee is Rs. 0 for all categories. Note, however, that Annexure-A of the same notice still carries a row (item 6) asking for details of a non-refundable application fee (DD issuing bank, place, date and amount). That row appears to be a leftover from the application-form template and contradicts the notice's own fee section, which states that no application fee is prescribed.

Selection

Selection is by personal interview; the Bank's decision is final. No interview date is given in the notice.

How to apply

Apply in the Annexure-A format, superscribing the envelope "Application for the post of Recruitment as Counselor of FLC on contract", and send it to the Regional Head, Central Bank of India, Regional Office, Bhopal, 9, Arera Hills, Jail Road, Bhopal — 462011, by post or by hand, so that it reaches by 15 November 2026. No email address for applications is given. Read the official notice linked below in full before applying.
