Uttar Pradesh has opened its Intermediate-level Mains examination, and the UPSSSC Inter Level Recruitment 2026 is a chance that belongs only to candidates who have already cleared one hurdle. The Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UPSSSC) has announced 1,784 Group C posts under advertisement 26-Exam/2026, dated 16 October 2026, for the Combined Lower Subordinate Service, Intermediate Level Main Examination, based on PET-2025. Applications open on 10 November 2026 and close on 1 December 2026, and the cost of applying is just a ₹25 online processing fee for all categories, with no separate application fee. The catch, and the point every candidate must understand first, is that only candidates who appeared in PET-2025 and hold a valid PET-2025 scorecard can apply. A candidate who did not appear in PET-2025 cannot enter this recruitment at any fee, and a candidate with a zero or negative PET-2025 score is not called for the Mains examination.

A Mains Exam Only PET-2025 Candidates Can Enter
The structure of this recruitment is different from an open fresh application, and that difference decides who should even open the form. UPSSSC runs a Preliminary Eligibility Test, known as PET, as a screening stage, and this Intermediate Level Main Examination is built on PET-2025. That means the Commission is not asking for fresh candidates from scratch. It is calling forward the candidates who already appeared in PET-2025 and hold a valid scorecard from that examination. The rule is stated plainly in the recruitment details: candidates with a zero or negative PET-2025 score are not called for the Mains examination. A candidate should therefore check their PET-2025 scorecard before anything else, because a strong intermediate qualification on its own does not open this door. The scorecard is the entry ticket, and without it the form cannot move forward.
The posts themselves explain why this recruitment matters to village-level aspirants in Uttar Pradesh. The two largest shares are Gram Vikas Adhikari, with 525 posts, and Gram Panchayat Adhikari, with 508 posts, together accounting for more than half of all 1,784 vacancies. These are the officers who work closest to village development and Panchayat administration, and they are the posts most 12th-pass candidates in the state will recognise first. Commercial Tax Collection Amin follows with 235 posts, and the remaining vacancies are spread across the other posts in the advertisement, which covers 12 rows and 11 distinct posts in total. A candidate should read the post-wise list in advertisement 26-Exam/2026 before choosing preferences, because the duties, the department and any extra certificate requirement all change with the post.
UPSSSC Inter Level 2026 : Vacancy Details
| Post Name | No. Of Post |
|---|---|
| Gram Vikas Adhikari | 525 |
| Gram Panchayat Adhikari | 508 |
| Commercial Tax Collection Amin | 235 |
| Other Posts (As Per Advertisement 26-Exam/2026) | — |
| Total | 1,784 |
The post-wise vacancy breakup for all 12 rows is given in advertisement 26-Exam/2026 on the official UPSSSC website. Candidates should check that table for the exact figures for the smaller posts, because the three largest posts listed above do not cover the full total on their own. The fee structure is unusually simple for a recruitment of this size: there is no application fee at all, only a ₹25 online processing fee for every category. That low fee removes one barrier, but it does not remove the PET-2025 condition, and candidates should not mistake a cheap form for an open form. The correction and fee reconciliation window runs till 8 December 2026, a week after the last date, so a candidate who spots a mistake after submitting still has time to correct it within that window.
Intermediate Pass Plus PET-2025: The Two Conditions That Decide Eligibility
| Post / Requirement | Eligibility Criteria |
|---|---|
| All Posts |
|
| Samaj Kalyan Paryavekshak, Gram Vikas Adhikari, Gram Panchayat Adhikari |
|
| Farm Lipik |

The extra certificate rule is easy to miss and expensive to discover late. Three of the posts — Samaj Kalyan Paryavekshak, Gram Vikas Adhikari and Gram Panchayat Adhikari — also need a NIELIT CCC certificate, in addition to the intermediate qualification and the PET-2025 scorecard. Gram Vikas Adhikari and Gram Panchayat Adhikari are the two largest posts in the whole recruitment, so that CCC requirement touches more than a thousand vacancies between them. A candidate who applies for either post without the CCC certificate risks rejection at verification, even with a good PET score. The qualification deadline adds a second hard line: the required qualification must be held by 1 December 2026, the last date for applications. Candidates should verify the post-wise certificate requirements in the notification, because the requirements are not the same for every post.
UPSSSC Inter Level 2026: What To Have In Hand Before 1 December
Because this is a Mains examination for PET-2025 candidates, the paperwork starts with proof of the two things that make a candidate eligible at all. Candidates should keep their intermediate marks sheet and certificate from the UP Board or a recognised equivalent board ready, together with their PET-2025 scorecard, because the scorecard number and score will be needed in the form and checked again later. Candidates applying for Samaj Kalyan Paryavekshak, Gram Vikas Adhikari or Gram Panchayat Adhikari should also keep their NIELIT CCC certificate ready before they tick those posts, since that certificate is part of the eligibility for those three roles and cannot be added after the fact. A recent photograph and signature in the format the portal requires, a valid identity proof, and any category certificate the candidate intends to claim should be kept ready as well. The name and date of birth on the form must match the certificates and the PET-2025 record exactly, because a spelling difference between the application and the scorecard can cause trouble at verification.
