IOCL Marketing Division NR Apprentices Online Form 2026 for 433 Post

IOCL Marketing Division NR Apprentices Online Form 2026 for 433 Post is a certificate verification schedule covered on this page. The key figures are 433 vacancies and an application window closing 06 September 2026. Everything below — dates, eligibility, fee and the official links — is set out in the order you will need it.

Public sector undertakings frequently recruit on GATE scores rather than a separate written exam. Check whether this notification requires a GATE score, and for which paper and year, before preparing separately.

Applications open on 07 August 2026 and close on 06 September 2026, giving candidates 31 days to complete the process. The 31-day window is comfortable, though last-day traffic still causes portal failures every cycle — applying in the first half avoids it.

433 posts are advertised in this notification. With a small number of posts, expect a high applicant-to-vacancy ratio and cut-offs well above the qualifying mark. Category-wise distribution, where the notification provides it, is shown in the vacancy table further down this page — check the count against your own category rather than the overall total, since reserved-category cut-offs and competition ratios differ substantially from the unreserved ones.

The age limit runs from 18 to 24 years for unreserved candidates. That is a 6-year band, so candidates near either edge should confirm the exact cut-off date the notification measures age against — it is usually a fixed reference date, not the date you apply. On qualifications, the notification states: 10th (Matric) Pass with 2-Year ITI in the relevant trade such as Fitter, Electrician, Electronics Mechanic, Instrument Mechanic or Machinist. ITI must be recognized by NCVT/SCVT. If your degree is an equivalent under a different name, look for the equivalence clause in the official PDF before paying the fee — a form rejected for a qualification mismatch is not usually refundable.

All Category Candidate is exempt from the application fee under this notification. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

Document verification is where otherwise-successful candidates most often fall out, usually over a missing category certificate or a name mismatch across documents. Assemble originals plus self-attested photocopies well before the date, and get any discrepancy in spelling or date of birth corrected in advance — it cannot be resolved on the day.
