Karnataka High Court Data Entry Assistant Recruitment - Important Dates

• Candidates need to track only two key dates for this recruitment cycle since the High Court has not yet announced the typing test or interview schedule. The notification was published on 29 June 2026, and applications close on 28 July 2026.

Vacancy Breakdown: Data Entry Assistant Posts by Category

• Candidates wondering how the 28 vacancies are split can note that they fall under two separate cadres - the Residual Parent Cadre (28 posts) and the Kalyana Karnataka Region (7 posts) - each with its own category-wise reservation. Both notifications include backlog vacancies reserved for specific categories.

Eligibility Criteria for Data Entry Assistant Post

• Anyone asking who can apply for this Karnataka High Court vacancy should know that eligibility is based on educational qualification, typing certification, and age limit, all of which must be fulfilled as on the last date of application. The same eligibility criteria apply to both the Residual Parent Cadre and Kalyana Karnataka Region notifications.

Educational Qualification

• Candidates must have passed a Bachelor's Degree in Science, Arts, Commerce, Business Management, or Computer Applications from a recognized university. General and Other Backward Category candidates need a minimum of 55% aggregate marks, while Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe candidates need a minimum of 50% aggregate marks. In addition, candidates must have passed the Senior Grade Typewriting examination in both English and Kannada, along with a certificate in computer basics from a recognized computer education institute.

Application Fee for Karnataka High Court DEA Recruitment 2026

• Candidates often ask how much the application fee is and how to pay it - the fee depends on the candidate's category and must be paid online through the State Bank of India payment gateway integrated into the application portal. Once paid, the fee is non-refundable under any circumstances, even if paid more than once by mistake.
• Fee payment and application submission can be completed round the clock until 11:59 PM on 28 July 2026.

Selection Process: How Candidates Will Be Chosen

• Candidates curious about the selection procedure should know it involves two stages - a Typing Test followed by an Interview - and merit is calculated based on combined performance in both. The process begins with shortlisting based on qualifying degree marks, not a separate written exam.
• Shortlisting for Typing Test: Candidates are listed in order of merit based on the percentage of marks scored in their qualifying degree examination. Roughly 10 times the number of notified vacancies in each category are called for the Typing Test.
• Typing Test (100 Marks, 60 minimum to pass): A passage of 500 words is dictated over 10 minutes, and candidates must transcribe it on a computer within 20 minutes.
• Interview (20 Marks, 10 minimum to pass): Successful candidates from the Typing Test are called for interview, in order of merit, up to 5 times the number of notified vacancies per category.
• Final Merit List: Prepared out of a Grand Total of 120 marks (70 minimum required to pass), combining Typing Test and Interview scores.
