NID Assam Senior Assistant Finance Recruitment 2026

NID Assam Senior Assistant Recruitment 2026: Overview

National Institute of Design (NID), Assam is an Institution of National Importance at Jorhat, set up by an Act of Parliament under the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce and Industry. The institute, which began classes in July 2019, now wants a Senior Assistant (Finance and Accounts) for its administration under notice NIDJ/2026-27/Admin./Rectt./105/RA/614. This is a Group-B administrative post meant for long-term service, so it suits commerce graduates who are comfortable with computers and want a steady accounts job at a central institute in the North-East.

This is a fresh call for a post NID Assam first advertised in May 2026, so if you applied then, read the notices section below before you apply again.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Reservation: The single post is earmarked for the OBC category. Reservation and age relaxation follow Central Government rules, and you need a certificate in the Government of India format to claim them.
• Persons with Disabilities: Candidates with at least 40% disability get preference even though no PwD reservation is marked, provided suitable PwD candidates apply.
• Contract first: NID Assam may first appoint the selected person on contract and regularise the job later based on performance and the institute's needs.
• Experience that counts: Only experience gained after your degree is counted, and work done during full-time study is ignored. Your experience certificate must be on letterhead and show your designation, work done, period, pay and whether the job was regular or contractual.
• Desirable background: Finance and accounts work in a government office or educational institution gives you an edge at shortlisting, and NID may raise the shortlisting bar above the minimum.
• Government employees: Apply through proper channel, or upload a No Objection Certificate with your online form and bring the original before the selection test. You also need a vigilance clearance certificate from your employer at the interview.
• Travel costs: No TA/DA is paid for the written or trade test. If you are called for a personal interview, NID Assam reimburses up to Second AC fare from your workplace or hometown on showing the ticket.
• Provisional appointment: The offer stays provisional until police verification and original documents are checked; false information leads to cancellation even after joining.
• Communication: All calls and letters come only by email, and shortlists appear only on the NID Assam website. Legal disputes fall under the courts at Jorhat.
