UPSSSC Assistant Boring Technician Recruitment 2026: 402 Posts, Eligibility, Last Date

Recruitment overview

UPSSSC has invited online applications for the post of Assistant Boring Technician through Advertisement No. 04-Exam/2026. The recruitment is for 402 vacancies in Uttar Pradesh and is linked to the UPSSSC PET 2025 process.

This post is associated with the Minor Irrigation Department. Candidates should treat this as a technical state government recruitment where the commission first uses PET eligibility and then conducts the main selection process for the advertised post.

Important dates

The main dates are already available and applicants should plan around them. Do not wait until the final day if your PET details, certificates or fee payment status still need to be checked.

If UPSSSC releases a revised schedule later, candidates should follow the commission website rather than relying on older summaries.

UPSSSC PET 2025 requirement

This is one of the most important points in this recruitment. UPSSSC has tied the post to PET 2025, so candidates without a valid PET 2025 score card should not treat this as a direct open form.

In practical terms, the commission uses PET to identify eligible candidates for the next stage. That means your PET details must be correct and available before you begin the application form.

• A valid UPSSSC PET 2025 score card is required.
• Candidates are shortlisted through the PET-based process for the main recruitment stage.
• Entering wrong PET details can affect the validity of the application.

Eligibility criteria and qualification

The basic qualification pattern for this post is technical and fairly specific. Candidates should not rely on only a general 10th pass qualification. The trade requirement matters.

• High School or equivalent examination passed.
• Two-year ITI certificate in Machinist, Fitter, Wireman or Turner trade, or a certificate in Tube Well Mechanic course.
• Valid UPSSSC PET 2025 score card.

If your qualification is close but not identical, it is safer to verify it from the official notification before applying. For this post, the trade requirement is a core eligibility condition, not a minor preference.

Age limit and reservation relaxation

The age limit for UPSSSC Assistant Boring Technician Recruitment 2026 is 18 to 40 years. Candidates should check the age calculation reference date in the official notification before final submission.

Reserved category candidates are generally eligible for age relaxation as per Uttar Pradesh government rules. Since the exact relaxation benefit depends on category and applicable rules, applicants should verify the official notice carefully before assuming eligibility.

Vacancy breakup

The total number of vacancies is 402. The category-wise breakup reported for this recruitment is shown below. Candidates should still cross-check the reservation table in the official notification PDF before relying on category entitlement.

Reservation and category claims are subject to document verification. Candidates should ensure that caste, sub-category and other reservation-related records are consistent across documents.

Application fee and mode of payment

The application fee for UPSSSC Assistant Boring Technician Recruitment 2026 is low and is the same for all categories. Even so, candidates should complete payment carefully and keep proof of the transaction until the recruitment cycle is over.

The fee is to be paid through the modes allowed on the UPSSSC application portal. An incomplete fee transaction can leave the application unfinished.

How to apply online

The application process is fully online through the UPSSSC portal. Before starting, keep your PET details, educational certificates, scanned photo, signature and identity details ready.

1. Visit the official UPSSSC website.
2. Open the advertisement or application link for Assistant Boring Technician under Advertisement No. 04-Exam/2026.
3. Log in with the required PET-linked details.
4. Verify your personal information and fill in the post-specific application fields.
5. Check educational and trade qualification entries carefully.
6. Pay the fee online.
7. Submit the form and save a copy of the final application.

If any error is noticed after submission, use the correction window within the allowed dates instead of leaving the mistake uncorrected.

Selection process

The recruitment process is expected to move in stages rather than through a single direct shortlist. PET 2025 serves as the entry filter, after which the commission proceeds with the main recruitment steps for the post.

• Eligibility through UPSSSC PET 2025 score.
• Shortlisting for the main stage.
• Main written examination for Assistant Boring Technician.
• Document verification at the appropriate stage.

The final merit is expected to depend on performance in the main examination and successful verification of eligibility, category and qualification documents. If UPSSSC adds any further stage later, candidates should follow the updated official notice.

Exam pattern, syllabus and admit card status

At this stage, candidates should be careful not to assume that every exam detail has already been released. For many UPSSSC recruitments, the detailed exam pattern, syllabus notice, admit card date and exam schedule are issued separately or clarified later.

For this post, the key confirmed point is that candidates move from PET-based eligibility to the main written exam stage. The exact written exam date has not been announced yet. Admit card release details are also pending.

• Main exam: To be notified later.
• Admit card: To be notified later.
• Detailed syllabus: Check the commission website for any separate release.

Pay scale and what the job is likely to involve

The post is associated with Pay Level-2, with a pay scale of Rs. 19,900 to Rs. 63,200. As a technical post in the Minor Irrigation Department, the role is linked to field-oriented and equipment-related work rather than a purely desk-based clerical function.

Applicants should assume that the post may involve technical assistance connected with boring, tube well-related work, maintenance support or departmental field operations, depending on posting and assignment.

What is still not announced

Many candidates search immediately for the exam date, admit card date and final syllabus. For this recruitment, some of those details are not yet announced in a final usable form.

• Main written exam date has not been announced yet.
• Admit card release date has not been announced yet.
• Result schedule is not available yet.
• Any later corrigendum or clarification must be checked on the official UPSSSC website.

This matters because applicants should separate confirmed facts from expected next steps. The safest approach is to complete the form on time and then monitor the official portal for the next notice.
