This is a project contract at an institute under the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India.

- Project-linked appointment: The engagement is temporary and purely contractual. Your initial appointment runs until 30 March 2027 or completion of the project, whichever comes first.
- Contract endpoint: The project-completion condition can shorten the stated tenure. You should therefore read the calendar endpoint together with that condition when considering the appointment.
- Reservation: The advertised opening is unreserved. The notice identifies it as an existing vacancy within this project.
