How does the SPMCIL Deputy Manager IT selection process 2026 work?

Stage	What happens at this stage
1. Online test	A computer-based test (CBT) with 120 objective questions. It carries 75% weightage
2. Document verification	SPMCIL checks the original documents of the shortlisted candidates
3. Interview	SPMCIL interviews the candidates who pass the earlier stages. It carries 25% weightage
4. Final panel	SPMCIL places candidates who meet the final limit in the panel of selected candidates

SPMCIL says admission to every stage is provisional. A candidate who does not meet the eligibility rules can lose the candidature at any stage. Read the exam pattern for the test details.

How does SPMCIL shortlist candidates for the interview?

A candidate must first reach the minimum qualifying marks in the online test.

Category	Minimum qualifying marks in the online test
UR and EWS	45%
OBC	40%
SC and ST	35%

UR means unreserved. EWS means economically weaker sections. OBC means other backward classes. SC and ST mean Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes.

SPMCIL shortlists candidates in order of merit in each category. The ratio is 1:4. This means 4 candidates for each vacancy. SPMCIL can raise the eligibility standard to limit the number of candidates it calls. Meeting the job rules alone does not give a candidate the right to a call for the test or the interview.

What marks does a candidate need for the final panel?

The final limit counts the online test and the interview together.

Category	Minimum qualifying marks (online test plus interview)
UR and EWS	55%
OBC	50%
SC and ST	45%

A candidate must reach both limits. The first limit decides the call for the interview. The second limit decides a place in the panel of selected candidates.

What does SPMCIL check at document verification?

SPMCIL checks eligibility against original documents only after a candidate qualifies in the online test. SPMCIL can reject a candidate who does not meet the age, degree, or experience rules. Read the eligibility rules before the document check.

Candidates must keep these items ready:

Original degree and experience documents that match the uploaded files
The original photo ID and one photocopy, with the admit card and the interview call letter
A No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the employer, for candidates who already work in Government or a similar body
Category or disability certificates, for candidates who claim those benefits

The name on the admit card must match the name on the photo ID exactly. SPMCIL does not allow a candidate with a mismatch to appear for the online exam.

Does SPMCIL pay travel costs?

SPMCIL pays no travel fare for the online test. An outstation candidate lives outside Delhi-NCR. SPMCIL can reimburse the to-and-fro train fare of such a candidate by 3-tier AC class. The fare runs from the nearest station to the place of the interview. The candidate must be provisionally shortlisted for document verification and the interview. The documents must be in order.

What happens after selection?

New recruits at E-2 level must sign a bond of ₹3,00,000 to serve SPMCIL for at least 3 years. SPMCIL can post a selected candidate to any unit or to the Corporate Office. Read the notification page for the other terms.

The official advertisement on the SPMCIL website gives the full selection rules.
