4. Vacancy and Category Analysis
| Category | Vacancies |
|---|---|
| Unreserved (UR) – Haryana domicile | 3 |
| DSC of Hry. (Deprived Scheduled Caste?) – as per Haryana roster | 1 |
| OSC of Hry. (Other Scheduled Caste) | 1 |
| BC‑A of Haryana | 1 |
| BC‑B of Haryana | 1 |
| ESM (Ex‑Serviceman) | 1 |
| EWS (General) of Haryana | 1 |
| PwBD (Low Vision) of Haryana | 1 |
Total: 10 posts (including 5 regular peon posts + 5 additional peon posts on adhoc basis). The number of vacancies may increase or decrease due to creation/withdrawal of courts, retirements, promotions, etc. No separate intimation will be issued. As per Rule 7(iii) of Haryana Subordinate Courts Establishment Rules, if no reserved category candidate is available, the appointment will be made from the General category.
Competition outlook: With only 10 posts and a large number of applicants (likely thousands), the competition is very high. Candidates from reserved categories (DSC, OSC, BC‑A, BC‑B, EWS, ESM, PwBD) have dedicated seats, which improves their chances significantly. PwBD candidates with Low Vision have a specific horizontal reservation – only 1 seat. Ex‑servicemen also have 1 dedicated seat.
5. Salary and In-Hand Payment
The post carries a consolidated pay of ₹16,900 per month. Since this is an adhoc appointment on fixed pay, there are no allowances (DA, HRA, TA) or deductions (NPS, PF, professional tax). Therefore, in‑hand salary is exactly ₹16,900 per month. No annual increments are applicable. This is a temporary engagement for six months or till regular appointment, whichever is earlier. Compared to regular peon posts in Haryana Government (which would be in Level‑1 with basic ₹18,000+DA+HRA → in‑hand ~₹30,000+), this adhoc pay is significantly lower but offers a foot in the door for candidates seeking government experience.
6. Application Fee
No application fee is required for any candidate. The recruitment is free of cost.

| PwBD belonging to SC/BC/EWS | 18 years | 52 years | +5 years (category) +10 years (PwBD) = up to 52 max |

Important: The upper age limit of any applicant (except Ex‑serviceman) shall not exceed 52 years even after availing multiple relaxations. Age is calculated from Matriculation / Middle certificate.
