NBCC (India) Limited has released Advertisement No. 01/2026 for direct recruitment to 59 regular posts in multiple streams. The vacancies span technical, managerial, language, communication, HR, IT support, and junior engineering roles. The recruitment includes positions such as Manager (Architecture & Planning), Deputy Manager (Company Secretary), Assistant Manager in different disciplines, Senior Project Executive (Civil), Graduate Assistant, and Junior Engineer posts in Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical.
This recruitment is important for candidates looking at central PSU opportunities in construction, project management, and allied administrative functions. The minimum entry level in this advertisement starts from three-year full-time diploma qualifications for Junior Engineer posts, while other positions require degree, postgraduate, or professional qualifications along with relevant experience.
The latest official change is a reopening of the online application portal. NBCC's public notice dated 12 April 2026 states that the portal has been reopened from 13 April 2026 to 17 April 2026 for posts 2 to 8 and 10 to 12. Because the reopening notice does not list post 1 General Manager (Engg.) or post 9 Graduate Assistant, candidates should treat the reopening as post-specific and verify the exact post before submitting the application.
Latest official update on NBCC Recruitment 2026
NBCC issued Advertisement No. 01/2026 for 59 regular posts and later published a public notice dated 12 April 2026 reopening the online registration portal. As per that notice, the portal has been reopened from 13 April 2026 at 10:00 AM to 17 April 2026 at 5:00 PM.
The reopening notice specifically mentions posts 2 to 8 and 10 to 12. That means the latest reopened window officially covers ten post categories. The notice does not mention post 1 General Manager (Engg.) or post 9 Graduate Assistant. Candidates interested in those two posts should rely on the original advertisement and the latest status shown in the NBCC career section before assuming that the reopening applies to them.
NBCC has also made it clear on its career page that applications are to be submitted online only through the career section of the official website, and updates or corrigenda are to be checked there regularly.

Selection process and exam route
NBCC has prescribed a level-based selection structure rather than a single common process for all posts.

|---|---|
| E-6 | Personal Interview |

Mid-level managerial and technical E-1 to E-3 posts require both CBT and Interview. NBCC has also stated that the selection criteria may change based on response received, and its decision will be final.
The advertisement states the mode of selection but does not publish a detailed post-wise CBT syllabus or paper pattern in the reopening notice. Candidates should watch the official career page for any later exam-related notice.
