Fee

All candidates uniformly pay Rs. 500 per application initially, online only through the Bharatkosh portal or payment gateway. Rs. 400 is refunded only to candidates who appear in the written test, so the non-refundable part is Rs. 100. Women, SC, ST, PwBD and Ex-servicemen candidates who appear in the written test get a full refund of Rs. 500. Do not read the fee as simply Rs. 500 or Rs. 100 — the refund structure above is the correct position.

Selection

Selection is by Written Test or Computer Based Test, followed by a Skill Test (curriculum-based). The exam date will be notified later, and the admit card will be issued before the exam. Read the official advertisement PDF linked below in full before applying.
