Trade-wise: ITI Fitter — 127 posts, ITI Turner — 93 posts, ITI Electrician — 58 posts, ITI Welder — 44 posts, and ITI Machinist — 40 posts. Category-wise total: UR: 154, OBC: 95, SC: 56, EWS: 34, and ST: 23 posts across all trades combined.
Q2. What qualifications are mandatory for BEML Operator Recruitment 2026?
Candidates must have completed an ITI course with First-Class (minimum 60% marks) in the respective trade under the Conventional Training Pattern of the Craftsmen Training Scheme, and possess a National Trade Certificate (NTC) as a regular candidate issued by NCVT. Additionally, candidates must have completed Apprenticeship and hold a National Apprenticeship Certificate (NAC) under the respective trade issued by DGT. Both NTC and NAC are mandatory — applications without these will be rejected. The 60% minimum is relaxable by 5% (to 55%) for SC/ST/PwD candidates.
Q3. Is this a permanent job at BEML, or a temporary/contract position?
This is a tenure-based (fixed-term) engagement, not a permanent regular job. Selected candidates are engaged for a maximum period of 4 years from the date of joining. The tenure ends automatically on completion of 4 years without further notice. The engagement can also be terminated earlier by either party with one month’s written notice (or payment of one month’s Basic Pay + DA in lieu). The official notification explicitly states that this tenure-based engagement does not confer any right to claim the status of a regular employee of BEML.
Q4. What is the age limit for BEML Operator Recruitment 2026?
Upper age limit: 29 years for General/EWS candidates, 32 years for OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) candidates, and 34 years for SC/ST candidates — all reckoned as on 10 July 2026. PwD candidates (with minimum 40% disability) get an additional 10 years’ relaxation over and above the relaxation admissible to their respective SC/ST/OBC-NCL category.
Q5. What is the exam pattern for the BEML Operator Written Test?
Computer Based Written Test of 2 hours duration, comprising 100 Multiple Choice Questions for 100 marks (1 mark each), with no negative marking. Three parts: Part-I — General Awareness (20 questions), Part-II — English & Reasoning (20 questions), and Part-III — Concerned Discipline/Trade-specific questions (60 questions). Pass marks: 45% for General/EWS/OBC candidates and 40% for SC/ST/PwD candidates. Final selection is based purely on Written Test performance — there is no interview.
Q6. What is the application fee and how do I pay it?
The application fee is ₹200 (non-refundable) for General, EWS, and OBC candidates, payable online at the end of the application form. SC, ST, and PwD candidates are exempted from paying any fee. Only the online payment gateway integrated into the BEML career portal is used — no DD/cheque/cash accepted.
Q7. Will I get to choose my posting location at BEML?
No. The notification clearly states: “Selected candidates will be posted to any of the BEML’s Manufacturing Complexes/Business locations/up-coming manufacturing Complex and no request for change of posting will be entertained.” BEML has multiple manufacturing complexes across India (including Bangalore, Kolar Gold Fields, Mysore, and other locations) — selected Operators may be posted to any of these based on company requirements.
Q8. Will Travelling Allowance be paid for the Written Test or Document Verification?
Candidates must appear for the Written Test entirely at their own cost — no TA is reimbursed for this stage. However, candidates who qualify the Document Verification (DV) stage are reimbursed TA — Sleeper Class/II Class train fare or bus fare by the shortest route — subject to production of proof of travel (original onward journey ticket and photostat copy of the return journey ticket). If proof is not produced, TA will not be paid.
Q9. My ITI is from SCVT (state board), not NCVT. Am I eligible?
The notification specifically requires a National Trade Certificate (NTC) issued by NCVT as a regular candidate. Candidates whose ITI certification is only from a State Council (SCVT) without NCVT certification, or whose certificate was obtained through a non-regular/correspondence mode, would not meet this mandatory criterion. Candidates should carefully verify that their ITI certificate explicitly bears NCVT certification before applying — applications not meeting this criterion are liable to be rejected at document verification even if shortlisted in the written test.
Q10. How many candidates will be called for Document Verification, and is it merit-based?
The number of candidates called for Document Verification will be strictly limited to the number of positions notified, discipline-wise and category-wise. Candidates are called for DV in order of merit (based on Written Test performance) until the number of candidates qualifying in the DV process equals the number of advertised posts for that trade/category. If a candidate fails DV, the next candidate in merit order for that trade/category is called, continuing until all vacancies are filled through successful DV.
