Selection Process :
Selection process will be based on a merit list prepared by taking the average of the percentage marks obtained in Matriculation (minimum 50% aggregate) and ITI examination, with equal weightage given to both. There will be no written test or viva. In case of a tie, preference will be given to the older candidate, and if the date of birth is also the same, the candidate who passed Matriculation earlier will be given priority.
Matriculation marks will be calculated using the total marks of all subjects (including optional and additional subjects). ITI marks will be calculated using the average marks of all semesters as per the consolidated statement issued by NCVT.
Trade-wise and community-wise merit list will be issued by the concerned Divisions/Units, and candidates will be called for document verification based on merit and the Division/Workshop opted. Final selection will be subject to verification of original documents and submission of a Medical Fitness Certificate.
