ISRO URSC Recruitment 2026 – 61 Vacancies, Apply Online

The eight technician posts are Electronics Mechanic (24 vacancies), Fitter (8), Electrician (4), Turner (1), Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (5), Motor Vehicle Mechanic (1), Machinist (2) and Electroplater (1). Each one requires a Class 10th pass together with an ITI, NTC or NAC certificate in the matching trade. A candidate with a certificate in a different trade is not eligible for a trade post, so check the trade name on your certificate against the post before applying.

The three driver posts have different licence and experience requirements. Staff Car Driver-A (2 vacancies) requires Class 10th, a valid LVD licence and 3 years of experience. Light Vehicle Driver 'A' (3 vacancies) is listed with a valid HVD licence and 5 years of experience, of which 3 years must be as an HVD. Heavy Vehicle Driver-A (10 vacancies) is listed with a valid LMV licence and 3 years of experience. The licence classes for the two heavy and light driver posts appear reversed compared with what the post names suggest, so confirm the exact licence class and the date by which experience must be completed in the official notification before applying. Use the age calculator to confirm you fall within 18–35 years on the reference date given in the notification.

• Technician posts (8 trades): Pay level, gross pay and in-hand estimate: See official notification.
• Driver posts (3 variants): Pay level, gross pay and in-hand estimate: See official notification.

For this regular central government post, the National Pension System deduction is 10% of basic pay plus DA. This assumes the post is covered by NPS rather than an older pension scheme, and the notification details available here do not confirm which scheme applies. Income tax is deducted according to your slab, and the in-hand figure depends on allowances that are not specified in the listing. Use the salary calculator once the pay level is published in the notification. Private sector trade and driving roles pay on a different structure, and government trade posts generally carry a fixed pay scale with periodic increments, but the exact promotion timeline for these posts is not specified in the notification.

• Wrong trade on the form: Selecting a trade post that does not match the trade printed on your ITI, NTC or NAC certificate.
• Photo and signature errors: Uploading files outside the size or format given in the notification, or a photograph with a busy background.
• Incomplete education details: Leaving out the certificate number, year of passing or board name, which causes mismatches at document verification.
• Age miscalculation: Counting the age from the wrong reference date, or assuming a relaxation that the notification does not confirm.
• Driver licence errors: Claiming a licence class you do not hold, or not having the required years of experience by the date the notification specifies.
• Missing documents at verification: Not carrying original certificates, the licence, experience proof and ID on the verification date.

Shortlisted candidates will be called for the stages named in the notification, which may include document verification, trade or driving tests and a medical examination. Document verification requires original certificates, marksheets, the ITI, NTC or NAC certificate, the driving licence for driver posts and experience proof, so keep them ready from the time you submit your form. The notification does not specify the training period, joining formalities or posting locations for these posts, so check those details in the official document. Plan for a realistic timeline in which the results and joining steps follow the closing date by several weeks to months, depending on the notified schedule.

The Indian Space Research Organisation was established in 1969 under the Department of Space and is headquartered in Bengaluru. It develops and operates space technology for communication, navigation, earth observation, remote sensing and planetary missions, and it has a network of centres across India. This recruitment is run under the U R Rao Satellite Centre (URSC), one of ISRO's major satellite development centres.

ISRO is a credible employer because it is a government body with a long record of satellite and launch missions, and its technical staff work on projects that are subject to strict quality and safety standards. Technician roles in trades such as fitting, electronics, electrical work and machining support the assembly, testing and maintenance of this hardware, which gives trade-qualified candidates work of real technical depth.

Technician posts in this recruitment cover eight trades, including electronics mechanic, fitter, electrician, turner, refrigeration and air conditioning, motor vehicle mechanic, machinist and electroplater. Their day-to-day duties are centred on workshops, laboratories and facilities, where they install, maintain, repair and fabricate equipment according to the specifications set by engineers. Work is largely hands-on and carried out on site, with tools and test equipment specific to each trade, and reporting runs through supervisors and engineers. The exact duties, uniform requirements and public interaction levels for each post are not specified in the notification details available here, so confirm them in the official document.

The three driver posts involve driving official vehicles for the organisation, with duties that depend on the vehicle class and the roles of the officials being transported. Driver posts are mainly field and transport based, not desk based. Confirm the reporting structure and any vehicle-related responsibilities in the notification.
