Educational Qualification
Full Time Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering with not less than 60% marks or equivalent grade from recognized University/ Institute approved by AICTE/UGC, as on 01.10.2026.
The percentage is taken from the consolidated mark sheet issued by the University/Institution. If the university or institute does not issue a consolidated mark sheet, the final percentage is the average of all semesters/years. Candidates must write their percentage without rounding it off. If the mark sheets show CGPA/OGPA/DGPA:
- If the university/institute has no rule for converting CGPA/OGPA/CPI/DGPA or a letter grade into a percentage, a minimum of 6 on a 10-point scale is treated as 60%. A score on any other scale is prorated.
- If the university/institute does provide a conversion, the candidate gives the equivalent percentage using that institution's norms. A certificate to this effect may be obtained from the university/institute, and it must be produced at the time of verification.
Experience
Candidates need at least five years of experience after their qualification, as on 01.10.2026. The experience must be in Electrical construction, Procurement, Installation, Testing and commissioning/TRD Maintenance in Railways, Metro Rail or Power Transmission/Distribution utilities. Experience in Railway OHE/Power Supply/SCADA, E&M or Electrical utility Diversion will be preferred. Teaching, training, consultancy or freelancing experience does not count as relevant experience.
Age Limit
The maximum age is 50 years as on 01.10.2026. Age relaxations follow the Government of India's guidelines, as long as the candidate has the required qualification and experience.
Medical Standards
Candidates should be in sound health and free from colour blindness. No relaxation in health standards will be allowed.
Candidates can apply whether or not they are working on the cut-off date, as long as they have the essential qualification and post-qualification experience. Ex-contract employees of IRCON whose services ended because their projects closed can also apply if they meet these requirements. They must send a copy of their termination letter with the application, and the new appointment will be a fresh appointment with no link to their earlier employment in IRCON. For the full eligibility conditions of the post, see the official notification.
Pay and Contract Terms
- Pay: a fixed consolidated pay of Rs. 60,000/- per month, plus an annual increment of 5% on the fixed consolidated pay after each completed year of service. There are no allowances on top of the fixed pay.
- Contract period: initially 18 months, subject to satisfactory performance. The contract may be extended for another year if the candidate's services are satisfactory and the Project requires it.
- The posts are only for the NFR Projects under the Lumding and Tinsukia Divisions and not for IRCON's regular establishment. The appointment is co-terminus with the Project and gives no right to claim absorption into the regular establishment or appointment in other projects of the company.

The premium is reimbursed when the employee submits a copy of the policy and the original premium receipt.
- PF: the minimum PF prescribed under the EPF & MP Act 1952 is deducted from the salary, and IRCON makes a matching contribution. The accumulated amount is paid when the contract ends.
- Leave: one leave for each calendar month of service. Leave can be carried forward and accumulated, but unused leave is not encashed during the contract or on resignation or termination. No other type of leave is admissible.
- Employees get one weekly off and the public holidays on which the project office is closed. Working hours, working days and offs are the same as for the Project.

It also needs a self-attested passport-size photograph and the signed declaration.
