Basis of this post: the UIDAI career portal was unreachable at scan time, so the circular was read in full from a mirror copy of the official UIDAI circular hosted by FreeJobAlert. The facts below are from that mirror copy of the official circular.

Pay and tenure

Pay is Pay Matrix Level 13 of the 7th CPC — Rs. 1,23,100 to Rs. 2,15,900. The deputation period is five years; the lending organisation may relieve the officer for a lesser period as per its policy, subject to a minimum of three years. This is a non-technical post, so no technical allowance applies. Facilities include a vehicle for commuting for Director and above, and CGHS or medical reimbursement as per the UIDAI scheme.

Officers from the Central Government holding analogous posts on a regular basis in the parent cadre or department, or with three years of regular service in Pay Matrix Level 12 (Rs. 78,800 – Rs. 2,09,200) or above; or officers from a State or UT Government, a PSU or an Autonomous Organisation holding a regular post in corresponding grades with requisite experience. Only officers who have completed at least five years of government service may apply.

UIDAI may change the number of posts at any time and reserves the right to post the selected officer at any other location.
