Read this first — deputation only

This post is on deputation only, for serving IRSSE and S&T Department officers. It is not open to fresh candidates or the general public. The tenure is five years, subject to Government approval for exemption from the rule of immediate absorption.

For General Manager: officers holding substantively (i) posts in an analogous grade (CDA or IDA), or (ii) Level-13 (CDA) posts with 17 years' service in Group 'A', or (iii) IDA E-7 (Rs. 1,00,000–2,60,000) posts for four years.

Preference is given to candidates with experience of working in a construction organisation.

The age limit is below 58 years for General Manager and below 56 years for Additional General Manager, reckoned as on the closing date of the vacancy notice. No minimum age is stated.

Pay

Pay is parent pay plus deputation allowance — no rupee figure is printed in the notice, so no monthly pay figure can be given here. The grade scales in the eligibility are: General Manager Level-14 (CDA) or IDA E-8 (Rs. 1,20,000–2,80,000); Additional General Manager Level 13-A (CDA) or E-7 (IDA) (Rs. 1,00,000–2,60,000).

Fee

No application fee is stated anywhere in the notice.

Last date — note the conflict

The notice states "CLOSING DATE: 30 DAYS FROM DATE OF ISSUE" and was issued on 14 October 2026, which gives 13 November 2026. Two job sites agree on 13 November, but two others say 12 November. The official wording supports 13 November, and that is the date used here — but given the conflict, do not leave the application to the last day.

How to apply

Apply through proper channel in the prescribed proforma, available on the RVNL website under Career and Jobs. A scanned copy of the duly filled and signed proforma must also be emailed as an advance copy to rvnl.deputation@rvnl.org. The controlling officer or zonal railways should forward eligible applications with vigilance and DAR clearance and the last five years' APAR grading to the same email within 15 days of the closing date.

Note on the source: the official RVNL website is unreachable from our system, so the notice was read from the fetch layer's cached copy of the official PDF on the RVNL host. Read the official notice PDF linked below in full before applying.
