Candidates must have passed at least a one-year course in one approved trade from a government-recognized Industrial Training Institute. A provisional claim of having passed ITI or apprenticeship is not accepted. The relevant result and evidence must satisfy the notification's cut-off conditions.

For an unreserved male candidate, the notice gives the birth-date range as 6 October 1991 to 6 October 2008 . The combined upper-age limit after all applicable relaxations cannot exceed 45 years. Ex-servicemen receive the notified service-period relaxation plus three years, subject to that ceiling.

The fee is compulsory and non-refundable and must be paid through the OJAS online payment gateway. If a candidate submits more than one form, the latest application with the required fee is the one considered under the notification's rule.
