NIA Multi-Post Recruitment 2026: Overview

National Investigation Agency (NIA), under the Ministry of Home Affairs, is recruiting ministerial staff through deputation for offices across India. The circular brings secretarial, section administration, accounts and clerical posts into the same recruitment exercise. Your parent department must nominate you and certify your service record, so this is a service-mobility opportunity for government staff.

• Section Officer/Office Superintendent: A gazetted section-management role with responsibility for orderly office work.
• Assistant: A non-gazetted ministerial role supporting section administration and file handling.
• Accountant: A non-gazetted ministerial role in the Accounts Branch.
• Stenographer Grade-I: A non-gazetted personal-assistance role supporting officers.

Post-wise Duties

Senior Private Secretary

You will supervise assigned office work, check drafts and follow up delayed correspondence. The notice also covers file indexing, record review and compliance with security instructions.

Section Officer/Office Superintendent

You will coordinate section work, monitor pending cases and ensure returns reach the right authority. Keeping registers, reference material and office records up to date is part of the role.

Assistant

You will prepare drafts, organise files and identify the rules relevant to a case. You will also support the Section Officer and Administrative Officer in handling section matters.

Accountant

You will keep expenditure records and prepare budget and revised estimates for the competent authority. The work also includes drafting correspondence and maintaining the Accounts Branch’s files.

Stenographer Grade-I and Grade-II

You will provide personal-assistance and stenography support to officers. Both roles involve drafting routine correspondence, keeping records and drawing attention to relevant office rules.

Upper Division Clerk and Lower Division Clerk

You will help the section in charge by keeping files and correspondence records organised. You will prepare routine drafts, explain the issue in a file and point to relevant precedents or rules.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Tenure: Deputation normally lasts no more than three years, including an immediately preceding deputation to another ex-cadre post covered by the notice.
• Withdrawal: The circular does not allow you to withdraw your candidature after applying.
• Service rules: The annexures apply the relevant Central Government deputation terms, including later amendments. Post-specific restrictions distinguish the deputation route from departmental promotion.
• Posting: All posts carry an all-India posting scope. Do not treat the headquarters’ postal address as a promise of a Delhi assignment.
• Changes: The notified openings may vary with future vacancy positions.

Application Submission Notes

Your nomination must reach DIG (Admin), NIA Headquarters, CGO Complex, Lodhi Road, New Delhi 110003 through the proper channel. Use the prescribed Annexure-II bio-data format and arrange countersignature by the competent authority.

Your cadre authority must check the particulars against its records before forwarding the case. Late or incomplete applications will not be considered; if you are already on deputation, forwarding must still come through your parent cadre or department.
