Mizoram PSC has, in similar recent recruitments (such as the Cooperative Audit Officer exam), followed the standard practice of releasing a provisional answer key first, accepting candidate objections, and then publishing a final answer key before the result. Candidates should check the official Answer Key section on mpsc.mizoram.gov.in regularly for the exact schedule specific to the JAO exam.
About the Junior Accounts Officer (JAO) Post
Junior Accounts Officer is a Group 'B' post recruited by Mizoram PSC. Based on MPSC's JAO recruitment notifications published in 2026, the post has generally carried the following broad service conditions. These relate to the recruitment/eligibility notification and are provided for background only - they are not part of the answer key document itself:
- Educational qualification: Bachelor's degree from a recognised university
- Additional requirements: Computer proficiency as prescribed under the Mizoram Group 'A', 'B' and 'C' posts Service/Recruitment (Amendment) Rules, 2023, and Mizo Language Proficiency (exemption available for candidates who studied Mizo up to HSLC or above)
- Age limit: Generally 18 to 35 years, with age relaxation up to 5 years for ST/SC candidates or as notified by the Government of Mizoram
- Pay scale: Level-7 of the Mizoram State Pay Matrix
- Selection mode: Written competitive examination, followed by document verification
Important: Reported vacancy numbers for JAO recruitment vary across different Mizoram PSC advertisements issued in 2026 (different sources report different vacancy counts for different advertisement numbers). Since the answer key notification does not itself specify vacancy count, candidates should refer to the specific advertisement number mentioned on their admit card to confirm which recruitment cycle and vacancy count applies to them, rather than relying on any single figure.
