Indian Railways has officially opened applications for 3,548 graduate-level positions under the Non-Technical Popular Categories (NTPC–Graduate) recruitment.
Released by the Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) under Centralised Employment Notification (CEN) No. 06/2026, the drive aims to recruit qualified graduates across administrative, commercial, and operational divisions.
The recruitment drive spans four key designations, with Goods Train Manager accounting for the largest share at 2,750 vacancies. The remaining openings include 371 Senior Clerk Cum Typist posts, 300 Junior Accounts Assistant Cum Typist positions, and 127 Chief Commercial Cum Ticket Supervisor roles.
Remuneration follows 7th Pay Commission standards, offering initial basic pay of Rs 35,400 (Level 6) for Chief Commercial Supervisors and Rs 29,200 (Level 5) for the other three categories, plus applicable central allowances.
Candidates holding a recognised university degree aged 18 to 33 years as of Jan 1, 2027, are eligible to apply, with statutory age relaxations provided for reserved categories.
Notably, the Computer-Based Typing Skill Test (CBTST) has been dispensed with for typist posts, though basic computer proficiency will be assessed post-joining.
The selection process involves a two-stage Computer-Based Test (CBT), followed by Document Verification and Medical Examination. Online applications began on Oct 8 and will remain open until November 6, 2026, at 11:59 PM. Interested candidates can apply via the official portal at rrbapply.gov.in.
