ERNET India Registrar & CPO Recruitment 2026 — 1 post

ERNET India, an autonomous scientific society under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Government of India, has invited applications for the post of Registrar & Chief Personnel Officer (CPO) on deputation. The vacancy circular (No. EI-D-PA001/2/2026-PA dated 24 October 2026) was published in Employment News on 24 October 2026, and applications must reach ERNET India by 23 November 2026.

Deputation terms

The engagement is on deputation for three years. The total period of deputation, including any preceding ex-cadre deputation, will ordinarily not exceed five years, subject to the Recruitment Rules and Government instructions. Pay and other deputation terms are governed by Department of Personnel and Training instructions, including O.M. No. 6/8/2009-Estt. (Pay-II) dated 17 June 2010, as amended.

Who can apply

Officers working on analogous posts in Government, public sector undertakings or autonomous bodies on a regular basis, or officers working in Pay Matrix Level-12 with five years of regular service in the grade and in an equivalent field. The essential qualification is a Graduate degree; a PG Diploma in Personnel or Finance, with experience in personnel or administration, is desirable. Applicants must be spareable immediately upon selection.

Pay and age

The post carries Pay Matrix Level-13 under the 7th Central Pay Commission. The circular prints no rupee figure for the pay — the Level-13 scale is the standard 7th CPC scale for that level — so no salary amount is shown in this post. The maximum age is 56 years as on the closing date for receipt of applications. No minimum age is stated in the advertisement.

How to apply

Apply in the Annexure-I form through the proper channel, addressed to the Registrar & Director (P&A), ERNET India, Block-1, A-Wing, 5th Floor, DMRC IT Park, Shastri Park, Delhi-110053. If the proper-channel application is likely to be delayed, an advance copy may be sent separately within the same period. Enclose attested copies of APARs or ACRs for the last five years, a Vigilance Clearance Certificate and Disciplinary Clearance or Integrity Certificate as applicable, the latest Aadhaar or PAN copy, an updated resume or CV, and a recent passport-size photograph. The form includes an employer-certification section confirming that the information is correct and that no vigilance or disciplinary proceedings are pending or contemplated.

Important points

No application fee is mentioned in the circular, so no fee is shown in this post. The selection process is not stated in the circular. Applications received after the closing date, or without the requisite documents and clearances, will not be considered, and officers who apply will not be permitted to withdraw their candidature subsequently. ERNET India may cancel or withdraw the process at any stage without assigning a reason, and any corrigendum will be published on ernet.in.
