MPHC Stenographer Recruitment 2026 Overview
- The table below gives the key facts of the MPHC Stenographer Recruitment 2026 advertisement. All details are taken from the official advertisement issued by the Registrar General, Madhya Pradesh High Court, Jabalpur.
MPHC Stenographer Important Dates
- The last date for MPHC Stenographer online application is 27.10.2026, up to 05:00 PM. Payment of the fee must also be completed within this time. The advertisement states that no request for extension of the last date will be accepted.
MPHC Stenographer Vacancy 2026
- MPHC has notified 418 vacancies across four posts. The advertisement also publishes a category-wise breakup for each post, which is given in the second table below.
MPHC Stenographer Category-wise Vacancy
- The category-wise numbers below are reproduced from Section A (One) of the advertisement. The advertisement provides 35% horizontal reservation for women, 10% for ex-servicemen and 6% for persons with disabilities (1.5% each for VH, HH, LD and MD categories). In the original table, UR carries sub-columns "27%" and "13% provisional", and OBC carries sub-columns "27%", "14%" and "13% provisional". The figures are given here exactly as printed, together with the column-wise totals.
- Notes on vacancies from the advertisement:
- The number of posts may change. If it changes, the revised information will be published through a corrigendum on the High Court website (the advertisement mentions www.mphc.in in this note).
- Candidates must choose their preferred post(s) in the online form on the basis of the educational qualification shown against each post. The choice cannot be changed once the form is filled. Selection will be made only for the post chosen in the online form, even if the candidate scores high marks or holds the qualification of a higher post.
- Only unreserved posts are vacant for Stenographer Grade-III (Court Manager Staff) and Assistant Grade-III (English Knowing). Candidates belonging to SC, ST, OBC or EWS will be treated as unreserved for these posts.
- Under the Madhya Pradesh District Court Establishment (Recruitment and Conditions of Service) Rules, 2016, 20% of posts are horizontally reserved for candidates who have worked (or are working) on contract against an equivalent post in the same or a higher category/post in the MP High Court or MP District Courts for at least 5 years. If these posts cannot be filled, they will be filled by other candidates of the same category on merit.
- The OBC reservation was increased from 14% to 27% by the Madhya Pradesh Public Services (Reservation for SC, ST and Other Backward Classes) Amendment Act, 2019, and the matter is pending in the High Court (Writ Petition No. 5901/2019 and others). As per the advertisement, results will be declared in two parts: a main result for 87% of posts and a provisional result for 13% of posts. The final selection list will be subject to the final decision of the High Court.
MPHC Stenographer Eligibility Criteria
- MPHC Stenographer eligibility depends on post-wise educational qualification, age limit (calculated as on 01.01.2026) and the general conditions of the advertisement. The candidate is responsible for checking that all eligibility conditions are met before applying. Issue of an admit card does not mean that the candidate has been accepted as eligible.
Conditions for Selection and Candidature
- The candidate must be a citizen of India.
- A candidate who has more than one living wife/husband is not eligible.
- A candidate who has more than two children, one of whom was born on or after 26 January 2001, is not eligible, as provided in Rule 6 of the Madhya Pradesh Civil Services (General Conditions of Service) Rules, 1961. The advertisement clarifies that (a) a candidate is not disqualified where a later delivery results in more than one child after one living child already exists, and (b) a child born within 280 days of 26.01.2001 is not counted in the disqualification category (the advertisement refers to the High Court judgment in Writ Petition 5069/2002 dated 07.11.2003).
- The candidate must obtain a certificate of physical fitness for appointment from the District Medical Board. A candidate can be appointed temporarily if the certificate is submitted within 30 days of the date of appointment; otherwise the appointment can be terminated. If the Medical Board declares the candidate medically unfit, services can be terminated with immediate effect.
- Any attempt by the candidate to obtain support for his or her candidature will make the candidate ineligible for selection.
