NLC India Apprentices 2026: 1,067 training seats, with merit decided by the marks you already hold
NLC India Limited has opened 1,067 one-year apprenticeship training places under Advertisement L&DC/04/2026: 700 ITI Trade Apprentice seats and 367 Graduate (Non-Engineering) Apprentice seats. The notice names training at Neyveli and the Regional Office, Chennai. Applications are open from 21 October 2026, 10:00 AM, until 9 November 2026, 5:00 PM through NLC India’s official website.
This is a marks-based apprenticeship intake, not a written-exam recruitment. For ITI applicants, merit is based on the percentage in the qualifying ITI examination. Graduate applicants are ranked on their bachelor’s degree percentage, calculated under their university’s method; the notice supplies a fallback method where the university has none. The practical first check is therefore not exam preparation: it is whether your exact trade or degree matches a listed line and whether your marks can be documented in the required format.

🥧 1,067 seats: ITI trade and graduate streams
| Stream | Seats |
|---|---|
| ITI Trade Apprentice | 700 |
| Graduate (Non-Engineering) Apprentice | 367 |
ITI accounts for 65.6% of the intake and graduate non-engineering disciplines for 34.4%. This is a count comparison, not a selection-probability estimate: the notice gives no applicant numbers or merit cut-offs.
ITI trades: match the certificate name before choosing
📊 ITI trade-wise training seats
| ITI trade | Seats |
|---|---|
| Fitter | 125 |
| Turner | 45 |
| Mechanic (Motor Vehicle) | 110 |
| Electrician | 125 |
| Wireman | 110 |
| Mechanic (Diesel) | 5 |
| Stenographer | 20 |
| Welder | 120 |
| COPA (Computer Operator and Programming Assistant) | 30 |
| Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Mechanic | 10 |
| Total | 700 |
Fitter and Electrician are joint leaders at 125 seats each; Welder follows with 120. Together, those three trades account for 370 of 700 ITI places (52.9%). That concentration is useful when comparing the published intake, but it does not make one trade a valid substitute for another. The qualification rule is ITI in the respective trade from a recognised institute.
Graduate disciplines: 93 seats in Computer Science
📊 Graduate discipline-wise training seats
| Graduate discipline | Degree named in the notice | Seats |
|---|---|---|
| Commerce | B.Com | 70 |
| Business Administration | BBA | 72 |
| Computer Science | B.Sc. Computer Science | 93 |
| Computer Application | BCA | 45 |
| Geology | B.Sc. Geology | 14 |
| Micro Biology | B.Sc. Microbiology | 5 |
| Chemistry | B.Sc. Chemistry | 26 |
| Pharmacist (Allopathy) | B.Pharm (Allopathy) | 3 |
| Pharmacist (Ayurveda) | B.Pharm (Ayurveda) | 3 |
| Nursing | B.Sc. Nursing | 36 |
| Total | — | 367 |
Computer Science is the largest graduate route at 93 seats (25.3% of this stream). BBA (72) and Commerce/B.Com (70) are close behind. The top four groups—Computer Science, Business Administration, Commerce and Nursing—make up 271 seats (73.8%). The advertisement does not publish discipline-wise cut-offs, so seat counts cannot be used to predict the marks needed for selection.
Who fits each stream?
ITI Trade Apprentice: A pass in ITI in the relevant trade from a recognised institute. The notice does not impose a passing-year window for ITI candidates. Use the trade shown on your certificate when selecting the application option; it separately lists Electrician and Wireman, and several distinct mechanic trades.
Graduate (Non-Engineering) Apprentice: A regular full-time bachelor’s degree in the listed discipline from a UGC-approved university. The qualifying examination must have been passed in 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 or 2026. The ten prescribed degree routes are Commerce/B.Com, Business Administration/BBA, Computer Science/B.Sc. Computer Science, Computer Application/BCA, Geology/B.Sc. Geology, Micro Biology/B.Sc. Micro Biology, Chemistry/B.Sc. Chemistry, Pharmacist (Allopathy)/B.Pharm (Allopathy), Pharmacist (Ayurveda)/B.Pharm (Ayurveda), and Nursing/B.Sc. Nursing.
The advertisement’s geographic condition is that applicants must be hailing from Tamil Nadu or Puducherry. It does not explain in the supplied text how that condition will be established, so candidates should use NLC’s application instructions or contact the listed help number rather than assume that present residence alone is enough.
How merit is worked out
There is no written examination or interview stage in the supplied notice. Trade candidates are selected by percentage of marks in the qualifying ITI examination. Graduate candidates are assessed on the percentage awarded in the bachelor’s degree under the university or institution’s own calculation procedure.
Where the university awards CGPA/grades, its published conversion method applies. If no conversion scheme exists, the notice says to multiply CGPA by 10. Where marks are recorded semester-wise, average the percentage across all semesters; where recorded year-wise, average across all years. Keep the institution’s marksheets and conversion certificate ready—an unsupported self-calculation can create a verification problem. If candidates have the same percentage at the cut-off, the older candidate by date of birth gets preference.
Monthly stipend and training period
| Stream / discipline | Monthly stipend | Training |
|---|---|---|
| ITI Trade Apprentice | ₹12,000 | 12 months |
| Graduate (Non-Engineering), general disciplines | ₹14,174 | 12 months |
| Pharmacist (Allopathy/Ayurveda) and Nursing | ₹16,678 | 12 months |
For the general graduate rate and the Pharmacy/Nursing rate, the notice says ₹6,150 is paid by the Government under DBT as part of the stated monthly stipend. It does not break the remaining portion into additional allowances. These are apprenticeship stipends, not a regular employee pay scale.
Age, reservation and earlier training
Applicants must have completed 18 years on or before 31 October 2026, as stated under the Apprentices Act. The supplied notice gives no upper-age limit and does not provide a separate numerical age-relaxation table; do not add one from another NLC recruitment.
Reservation for SC/ST/OBC/EWS/PwBD is to be provided under the Apprentices Act. The notice does not show a category-wise seat roster, so the 1,067 stream totals should not be re-labelled into invented category numbers. Candidates claiming reservation must provide certificates in the prescribed Government format. OBC-NCL applicants need a valid certificate effective from 1 April 2026; without the required certificate, the notice says the application will be considered under General category.
A candidate must not have previously completed, or currently be undergoing, NAPS/NATS or the PM Interns scheme at NLC India or elsewhere. This restriction is separate from the qualification requirement and should be checked before submitting the form.
Documents to prepare
The notice asks candidates to upload a recent colour photograph (3.5 × 4.5 cm), signature, Transfer Certificate, Aadhaar card, age/education records, and the applicable qualification records. ITI applicants should combine the 8th/SSLC record, ITI marksheets and trade certificate into one file. Graduates should combine degree/provisional or temporary provisional certificate, semester/consolidated marksheets and CGPA/OGPA conversion proof where relevant. Community, disability and ex-servicemen certificates are needed only where claimed.
The upload limits are small: photo and signature JPEGs up to 50 KB each; TC up to 50 KB; Aadhaar and education evidence generally up to 250 KB; the combined qualification file up to 250 KB; and applicable category/disability/ex-servicemen certificates up to 250 KB. Follow the portal’s current file prompts if it gives a more specific instruction. A 2026 graduate without a provisional certificate may use the temporary provisional certificate in the notice’s prescribed format, issued on the institution’s letterhead and signed and sealed by its Principal.
