UIDAI Assistant Accounts Officer Chandigarh 2026

UIDAI Assistant Accounts Officer Recruitment 2026: Overview

Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), the authority set up under the Aadhaar Act, 2016 to issue and authenticate Aadhaar numbers, is filling an Assistant Accounts Officer post at its Regional Office in Chandigarh. The Human Resource Division at the UIDAI Head Office in New Delhi issued the circular, and the post appears on the UIDAI career portal as VC Id 19949.

The post is filled on deputation, on Foreign Service terms. It is meant for officers already in government or public-sector service, not for fresh candidates. If you handle accounts in a Central or State Government office, a PSU or an autonomous body and hold a recognised accounts qualification, this is a chance to work with Aadhaar's regional administration in Chandigarh for a deputation term.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Who can apply: Only officers holding a regular post can apply. Central Government officers need an analogous post, or the required years of regular service in the feeder pay levels; State Government, PSU and autonomous body officers need a regular post in a corresponding grade with the needed experience.
• Professional qualification: You also need a Chartered Accountant, Cost Accountant or MBA (Finance) qualification, or a pass in the SAS or an equivalent accounts examination as described in the circular.
• Remaining service: You must have at least three years of service left before superannuation in your current organisation, counted on the last date of application.
• Cut-off date: Every eligibility condition, including age, is judged as on the last date of application.
• Language of the circular: The circular is published in English and Hindi; if the two differ, the English version is final.

UIDAI will consider your application only if it comes through the proper channel, which means your parent office has to forward it. Start from the Apply Now option on the UIDAI career portal page for VC Id 19949, and read the full circular there for the forwarding papers your office must attach.
