Important Dates

⚠️ Don’t wait for the last day. Government portals slow down as the deadline approaches, and shorthand/typing candidates often need extra time to fill in detailed educational and category fields. Apply at least a week early.

Delhi High Court SPA PA Vacancy Details 2026

Senior Personal Assistant (117 posts)

Of these, 7 posts are reserved for PwBD candidates (3 for OL/BL/LC/Dw/AAV, 2 for ASD/SLD/Mental Illness, 2 for Multiple Disabilities).

Personal Assistant (33 posts)

Of these, 3 posts are reserved for PwBD candidates (2 for OL/BL/LC/Dw/AAV, 1 for ASD/SLD/Mental Illness/Multiple Disabilities).

Eligibility Criteria for Delhi High Court SPA & PA 2026

Educational Qualification (as on 05 October 2026)

Both posts also require good working knowledge of computers — this isn’t just a formality, since Stage-II onward is fully computer-based.

Age Limit (as on 01.01.2026)

Candidates must be between 18 and 32 years old — that is, born between 02 January 1994 and 01 January 2008.

Delhi High Court SPA & PA Salary 2026

This is where the SPA and PA posts really stand out from typical Group C clerical jobs. Both are Group ‘B’ positions in the judicial establishment, and pay follows the 7th Pay Commission (CPC) matrix:

💡 Pro Tip: On top of basic pay, you’ll draw Dearness Allowance (DA), House Rent Allowance (HRA — 27%/18%/9% depending on your posting city), and Transport Allowance (TA). For a Delhi posting, the in-hand monthly salary for a fresh SPA typically works out well above ₹75,000 once DA and HRA are added, with PA slightly lower. Use our 8th CPC Salary Calculator to estimate your take-home once the next pay revision comes through.

Delhi High Court SPA & PA Examination Fee

Fee must be paid online through UPI, Net Banking, Credit Card or Debit Card. If you’re applying for both SPA and PA, you’ll need to submit two separate applications with two separate fees.

Delhi High Court SPA & PA Selection Process 2026

For Senior Personal Assistant

For Personal Assistant

The Main (Descriptive) Exam covers an Essay of 250 words (40 marks), Letter Writing (15 marks), Grammar & Comprehension (25 marks), and Translation both Hindi-to-English and English-to-Hindi (10 marks each).

✅ You need 50% to qualify in the Main Exam under General category, and 45% under Reserved categories (including PwBD). Typing is purely qualifying — your final rank comes from Shorthand + Main Exam + Interview marks combined. There’s no exemption from Typing or Shorthand for any category, PwBD included, and no scribe facility is provided either, given the nature of these duties.

Editor’s Note: The official Notification PDF and Apply Online links weren’t provided in the source article, so I’ve left them as [Check official site] placeholders — swap in the real PDF/portal URLs once you have them before publishing. The salary figures (Pay Level 7/8, starting basic pay) are sourced from secondary references, not the official notification itself, since the notification you shared didn’t include a pay section — worth a quick verification against the PDF before it goes live.
