ISRO Recruitment 2026 Opens for 10th and ITI Pass Candidates — Applications Until July 20

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has officially announced its 2026 recruitment drive, opening applications for a range of posts across its various centres and projects. The notification is particularly significant for aspirants who hold a 10th-standard pass certificate or have completed an Industrial Training Institute (ITI) course, as several positions fall within their eligibility bracket. The last date for submitting online applications is July 20, 2026.

While the detailed vacancy breakdown will be available on ISRO's official career portal, the recruitment is expected to cover roles such as Junior Assistant, Technician, and other supporting positions that require foundational technical training. These posts are spread across ISRO's network of research centres, including facilities in Bengaluru, Thiruvananthapuram, Sriharikota, and Ahmedabad.

The salary structure for these positions follows the central government pay matrix, with a starting pay level that can extend up to approximately ₹1.42 lakh per month, inclusive of applicable allowances depending on the post and location. This makes the opportunity especially appealing for candidates from tier-2 and tier-3 cities who are seeking stable government employment with competitive compensation.

Eligibility criteria typically require candidates to be Indian nationals, aged between 18 and 30 years (with relaxations for reserved categories), and to have passed 10th standard with Mathematics and Science as core subjects for certain posts, or possess a relevant ITI trade certification. A valid e-mail address and mobile number are required for the online application process.

Candidates are advised to apply exclusively through ISRO's official recruitment website. The organisation has consistently warned against fraudulent agents and unofficial channels, urging applicants to rely only on verified government websites for submissions. Detailed notification documents, including the vacancywise eligibility and application fee structure, will be published shortly on the ISRO careers page.
