Educational Qualification
- Each post's essential qualification is given below exactly as the notice prints it, with the level of the written examination for that post.
- The essential qualification must be held by the crucial date of eligibility, 27 November 2026. Candidates still awaiting the result of the final examination on that date are NOT eligible and should not apply.
- Selection follows the Recruitment Rules of each post. Equivalency is not allowed unless the prescribed essential qualification mentions it. Where it is allowed, the candidate must submit the equivalence order or letter (with number and date) from the Government of India, a State Government or the Competent Authority. Without it, the application will be rejected.
- Degrees, diplomas and certificates earned through Open and Distance Learning are accepted only if they were recognised for the relevant period, as per the Ministry of Human Resource Development notification dated 10-06-2015. These candidates must produce the approval of the distance education bureau and/or the University Grants Commission at document verification.
- Under the UGC (Open and Distance Learning) Regulations, 2017, programmes in engineering, medicine, dental, nursing, pharmacy, architecture and physiotherapy cannot be offered through Open and Distance Learning. B.Tech. degrees or diplomas in Engineering awarded by IGNOU to students enrolled up to the academic year 2009-10 remain valid where applicable.
Age Limit (as on 01-01-2026)
- The age limit for all posts is 18-40 years as on 1 January 2026. This means the candidate must have been born not earlier than 1 January 1986 and not later than 1 January 2008. Relaxation in the upper age limit follows GAD order No. 448-LA (GAD) of 2024 dated 27-09-2024 and its addendum dated 30-06-2025.

- Age is decided by the date of birth in the Matriculation Certificate/Marksheet, as filled in the online form. No later request for a change will be accepted.
- Age relaxation for a reserved category applies only to vacancies reserved for that category. Reserved-category candidates who apply against unreserved vacancies get only the relaxation available to UR candidates.
Application Fee
- The fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. It is paid online by credit card, debit card, net banking or UPI by 27 November 2026, and the candidate bears all bank service charges. The fee is not refunded if the application is incomplete or rejected, and it cannot be adjusted against any other examination. A separate fee is paid for each category of post applied for. Apart from this fee, LAHDC-KSSRB does not ask for any payment at any stage of selection.
