  • Eligibility differs slightly by post in terms of educational qualification, but age limit, citizenship, and category rules are common across the four Laboratory Assistant posts (Senior Laboratory Assistant has a different age limit).
  • Citizenship: Candidates must be Indian citizens or possess the nationality prescribed under Rule-7 of the Gujarat Civil Services Classification and Recruitment (General) Rules, 1967.
  • Educational Qualification (as on 6 July 2026):
  • For all five posts, candidates additionally need basic knowledge of computer applications (as prescribed under the Gujarat Civil Services Classification and Recruitment Rules, 1967) and adequate knowledge of Gujarati or Hindi, or both. Candidates who do not currently hold a computer-knowledge certificate may still apply, but must produce it before appointment, failing which the appointing authority will cancel their selection.
  • Age Limit: For the four Laboratory Assistant posts, candidates must be not less than 18 years and not more than 33 years as on 6 July 2026. For Senior Laboratory Assistant, the upper limit is 35 years (also not less than 18 years).

CategoryFee
Unreserved (Laboratory Assistant posts only)₹500
Reserved - all category women, SEBC, SC, ST, EWS, Divyang and Ex-servicemen candidates₹400
Senior Laboratory Assistant (Reserved/Divyang category)₹400
  • The fee must be paid only online - by Debit Card, Internet Banking, UPI, or Wallet - after the application is confirmed, and must be completed by 8 July 2026 (11:59 PM), after which the payment link closes automatically and no late fee will be accepted. A transaction fee applies in addition to the exam fee. Fees are refunded only to candidates who actually appear for the examination; candidates who do not pay the fee will have their application rejected without notice, and a candidate who skips the exam after paying will not get a refund.

Selection Process

  • Selection is conducted through a single-stage objective competitive examination (CBRT/OMR mode) consisting of two parts:
  • Part-A (90 marks): Logical Reasoning & Data Interpretation (30), Quantitative Aptitude (30), and Indian Constitution, Current Affairs, and Gujarati & English Comprehension (30)
  • Part-B (120 marks): Questions related to the candidate's subject/post
  • A combined total of 210 questions for 210 marks are asked, with a combined duration of 3 hours (180 minutes). Negative marking applies - ¼ mark is deducted for every wrong answer. A minimum qualifying standard of 40% applies independently to both Part-A and Part-B for all candidates.
  • After the exam, GSSSB will release a provisional answer key, invite objections, and then publish the final answer key, followed by the provisional result. Candidates within roughly twice the number of category-wise vacancies (based on merit, subject to qualifying marks) will be called for document verification. The final selection list and waiting list are then prepared category- and disability-group-wise based on merit. The notification does not state exam dates, result timelines, or interview details beyond these stages.
  • Widowed women candidates and candidates who have represented in recognised national/international, inter-university, or All India School-level sports get a 5% bonus on their marks for merit purposes, subject to producing the required certificates at verification.
