ISRO SAC Apprentice Engagement 2026–27 — 26 Graduate, Technician and Trade Post Codes (SAC:03:2026)

The Space Applications Centre (SAC), Ahmedabad, part of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) under the Department of Space, invites online registrations under Advertisement SAC:03:2026, issued on 11 November 2026. The opportunity is a 12-month apprenticeship under the Apprentices Act, 1961, not an appointment to a permanent ISRO post. The notice lists 26 distinct post codes across engineering graduates, other graduates, diploma holders and ITI trades. It does not disclose the number of apprenticeship seats available against any post code or a combined vacancy total. A list of 26 codes must therefore not be mistaken for 26 advertised vacancies.

The training is intended at the Ahmedabad centre. SAC develops spaceborne instruments and space-technology systems for terrestrial and planetary missions as well as national-development applications. The advertised categories cover engineering, computing, commerce, languages, technical diplomas and diverse ITI trades. The suitability of an application depends mainly on the specific discipline of the qualification, the state or territory of the awarding institution, the passing date and apprenticeship/work history, rather than the general reputation of the ISRO organisation.

📅 Critical dates — online portal closes at 5:00 PM IST

Apply only through the SAC official careers portal or the SAC institutional site. An applicant should register and save the application before the portal closes at 17:00 on 2 December. The same cutoff also affects availability of the application-summary print facility.

🧭 First check where you earned your qualification

The institutional-location rule is unusual and decisive. It concerns where the recognised qualification was obtained, not merely where an applicant is currently staying.

• Graduate and Technician Apprentices: The Degree or Diploma must be from a Government-recognised University, Board or Institute coming under Maharashtra, Gujarat, Goa, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, or the Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu.
• Trade Apprentices: The required ITI NTC/STC qualification must come from a recognised institution in Gujarat State. This trade-apprentice rule is more restrictive than the multi-state Degree/Diploma rule.

Being an Indian national is compulsory, but Indian nationality alone does not remove these specific qualification-origin requirements. This is an education-institution condition, not a separate general domicile-certificate rule announced by SAC.

🧾 26 individual post codes — a discipline directory, not a vacancy roster

The tables below preserve every advertised post code. The Number of seats column is deliberately not estimated because the official notice does not provide it.

Graduate Apprentice: post codes 01–09

Technician Apprentice: post codes 10–14

Trade Apprentice: post codes 15–26

🥧 Distribution of the 26 notified post codes by apprenticeship stream

What this chart means: it counts distinct fields/trades advertised, not available seats. There are 12 Trade Apprentice options, but the notice does not claim 12 trade vacancies. No vacancy or reservation pie chart can be calculated without an actual seat roster.

📊 Four actual monthly stipend bands prescribed by SAC

The stipend values are fixed monthly amounts in the current advertisement, subject to subsequent amendment or revision under the applicable orders. The difference between trade post codes 15–16 and 17–26 is real; candidates should compare the amount by their own code, not apply a single figure to all ITI trades. These are apprenticeship stipends, not the salary scale of an ISRO regular employee.

🎓 Academic qualification — exact stream-wise requirements

Graduate Apprentice (codes 01–06): recognised B.E./B.Tech. and at least 60%

Candidates for engineering post codes 01–06 must possess B.E., B.Tech. or equivalent qualification in the respective engineering field, with at least 60% aggregate marks from a Government-recognised University, Board or Institute. Code 03 accepts the advertised alternatives in Computer Engineering, Computer Science or Information Technology; a candidate should match the discipline printed on the certificate. The 60% threshold applies to the aggregate percentage declared by the institution, not an assumed final-year-only score.

Graduate Apprentice (codes 07–09): discipline-matched graduation and at least 60%

Code 07 concerns Bachelor of Commerce, 08 concerns Bachelor of Computer Applications, and 09 concerns Bachelor of Arts in Hindi or English. The advertised requirement is graduation in the respective field with a minimum of 60% marks from a recognised institution. A qualifying engineering degree is not a substitute for a B.Com/BCA/B.A. vacancy when the field itself does not match.

Technician Apprentice (codes 10–14): First Class Engineering/Technology Diploma

Technician candidates need a first-class Diploma in Engineering/Technology in the respective field from a recognised State Board of Technical Education. The five choices are Electronics & Communication, Mechanical, Computer Engineering/Computer Science/IT, Electrical and Civil. The advertisement uses the term First Class and does not independently prescribe a universal numerical cutoff for these diplomas; applicants should rely on the classification in their academic documents rather than substituting the Graduate category's 60% rule automatically.

Trade Apprentice (codes 15–26): 10th and relevant ITI NTC/STC from Gujarat

Trade applicants must have SSC/Matriculation/Class 10 and ITI NTC/STC in the relevant trade from a recognised institute in Gujarat State. The notice does not attach a separate percentage threshold to this ITI group. The trade named for a code must match the qualifying ITI certificate; for instance, Fitter (20), Turner (21), and Electrician (26) are distinct trade pathways.

🎂 Age limits and actual relaxation rules

The official upper-age relaxation is 3 years for OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) and 5 years for SC/ST. PwBD age relaxation is as per Government of India rules; SAC does not state one universal number in this advertisement, so no fixed 10-year addition has been presumed. The reference date for both age bands is 2 December 2026. An overall maximum of 35 years would be misleading for Graduate codes 01–09, whose normal upper limit is 28.

📊 Normal upper-age limit by apprentice stream

⏳ Why pass-out month and joining date both matter

SAC limits entry to applicants who passed the required Degree, Diploma or ITI in or after December 2023. Yet it also applies a further rule: anyone who has completed three years after acquiring the prescribed qualification by the day of joining is ineligible. A passing month after December 2023 does not automatically guarantee eligibility if three years have already elapsed by the actual training-joining date. The notice tentatively places joining in January/February 2027, without fixing a date. A borderline candidate should compare the verified month/date of academic completion with their actual joining schedule when communicated.

The one-year work-experience bar is separate from the three-year academic-age bar. An applicant with one year or more of job experience after the required qualification by apprenticeship joining is ineligible. An applicant who already underwent or is currently undergoing any apprenticeship training is also ineligible under this notice. Candidates should not conceal a previous apprenticeship or post-qualification employment merely because the application asks for academic marks first.

SAC also excludes sandwich courses, private degrees/diplomas, short-term courses, other disciplines, and those pursuing specified higher studies: Diploma holders pursuing B.E./B.Tech. and Graduates pursuing M.E./M.Tech. These are actual stated exclusions, not general advice against education.

🎯 How selection happens — marks-led shortlisting, not an announced written test

Candidates are shortlisted or empaneled on the percentage in the relevant qualifying Degree, Diploma or ITI examination, as formally declared by their institution. SAC states that due weightage is given to reservation categories. Only shortlisted/empaneled candidates will be called for document verification and the further process, depending on the availability of actual apprenticeship positions. Meeting the minimum educational requirements does not itself guarantee a training place.

This advertisement does not announce a separate written test, competitive exam syllabus, interview schedule, admit card, answer key, cutoff score, or merit/result publication date. Its merit-screening method relies on qualifying-exam percentage and documentary verification. The individual post-code seat counts and category-wise seat breakup are likewise not stated. Do not use the exam schedule or syllabus of a different SAC recruitment to prepare for this apprenticeship engagement.

Notifications for the next steps go only by email to shortlisted/empaneled candidates. At the joining stage, failure to meet the prescribed medical fitness requirements leads to cancellation of candidature. There is no travel allowance for document verification.

💻 Online registration — exact procedure and non-negotiable upload rule

1. Visit the official Space Applications Centre recruitment portal through SAC's website and locate Advertisement SAC:03:2026.
2. Have a valid email address ready. A particular email address can be used for registration only once, and further shortlisting communications are email-based.
3. Choose the correct code and fill all starred/mandatory fields. Enter the qualifying-examination marks as a percentage, supported by your actual result and certificate. Ensure the passing month and year match the original academic record.
4. Upload all essential Degree/B.E./B.Tech./Diploma/ITI qualification certificates as required in PDF format, maximum 1 MB per file. SAC expressly states that an application without the required uploads is invalid.
5. Review name, age, category, discipline, degree/diploma/ITI marks, percentage and passing date before final submission. The application can be submitted once only, and corrections are not allowed after submission.
6. Save the 14-digit Online Registration Number issued after registration, and save or print the application summary before 17:00 IST on 2 December 2026. Keep the printout for document verification.

The application portal's available print facility is not a substitute for registration; the original form and uploads must be submitted within the same published time window.

📑 Document-verification checklist — carry originals and required copies

When contacted, bring the printed online application summary with self-attested copies and the original records requested by SAC. These include date-of-birth proof; Class 10 and/or Class 12 marksheets and certificates; all qualifying Degree/Diploma/ITI marksheets and certificates; Aadhaar; and valid SC/ST/OBC(NCL)/EWS/PwBD category documents where applicable. EWS applicants must carry the applicable Income and Asset Certificate. The notice requires the relevant certificates for the current financial year in the prescribed Central Government recruitment format, as applicable.

Recheck the qualification percentage or class and the actual month/year of passing against the uploaded PDF before attending. Candidates who cannot produce prescribed originals may be disqualified. Applicants selected for apprenticeship must execute the training contract under the Apprentices Act, 1961 and Amendment Act, 1973; the 12-month term begins on execution of that contract.

💰 Fees, duration and future employment — avoid false assumptions

The 8-page notice does not prescribe a specific application-fee amount or category-wise fee table. That is not sufficient evidence to declare an officially confirmed ₹0 fee. Follow only the authentic portal's instructions, if any, and never pay money to unofficial agents offering selection. The stipends announced are ₹12,300, ₹10,900, ₹10,560 and ₹11,040 per month according to the post-code group. They may be revised under applicable orders. There is no notified regular government pay scale, fixed annual increment or advertised promotion entitlement for these apprentice slots.

Successful completion of one year's apprenticeship gives no claim to permanent or other employment at SAC, ISRO or any Department of Space centre/unit. The opportunity should be evaluated as practical training under the applicable apprenticeship law, not as an ISRO staff recruitment carrying an implied future appointment.
