The Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) has prescribed the examination scheme for the Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS) recruitment under Advertisement No. 06/2026 — 1,075 posts (Post Code 810/26).

Exam scheme — from the official Advt 06/2026 notification

There are five subjects, with 40 questions and 40 marks each: (1) General Awareness; (2) General Intelligence and Reasoning Ability; (3) Arithmetical and Numerical Ability; (4) Test of Hindi Language and Comprehension; (5) Test of English Language and Comprehension.
