Kerala PSC KLDC Assistant Project Engineer Vacancy 2026

Kerala PSC has notified 1 vacancy for the post of Assistant Project Engineer post for 135/2026 category. The notification confirms this is a presently existing vacancy, not a projected or anticipated one. That means the post is vacant right now and the Commission is actively recruiting to fill it.

Who Can Be Considered Against This Vacancy?

This is a restricted, in-service quota vacancy — only serving KLDC employees who meet the eligibility conditions can be considered. Specifically:

• Candidates must currently hold the post of Draftsman/Overseer with at least 3 years of service at KLDC, or
• Candidates from any other lower category (Administrative, Technical, Ministerial, or Last Grade Service) with at least 4 years of service at KLDC

Candidates appointed through employment exchange or working on a temporary basis are not eligible to apply for this vacancy, regardless of how long they’ve served.

How the Ranked List Works for This Vacancy

Understanding how KPSC handles the ranked list is key to understanding your real chances:

• The ranked list published in response to this notification will remain valid for a minimum of one year
• It continues to be in force until a new ranked list is published after the one-year minimum, or until three years pass — whichever happens first
• Candidates will be advised against the single vacancy notified now
• Additionally, if KLDC reports any further vacancies to the Commission in writing during the currency of this list, candidates will be advised against those too

This means even though only 1 vacancy is notified today, being on the ranked list could lead to future advice if KLDC reports more openings for this post before the list expires.

No Reservation Applicable

Unlike most Kerala PSC recruitments, the reservation rules under Rule 14 to 17, Part II of the Kerala State & Subordinate Service Rules, 1958 do not apply to this vacancy. This is a distinguishing feature of this specific in-service quota category.

KLDC Assistant Project Engineer Vacancy Cancellation and Its Impact

The Commission holds the power to cancel the advice for appointment to this vacancy if it’s later discovered the advice was made in error. In such cases:

• The appointing authority must terminate the candidate’s service
• This must happen within the candidate’s probation period or 240 days from the date of joining, whichever is earlier

This is an important safeguard candidates should keep in mind — being advised against the vacancy is not the final word until the probation period is cleared.

KLDC Assistant Project Engineer Salary 2026- Pay Scale for This Vacancy

The Assistant Project Engineer post carries a pay scale of ₹19,240 – 34,500/- in the pre-revised scale. This applies uniformly to the single vacancy notified under this category.
