APPSC opens 686 Group 2 vacancies, 196 ASO and 106 other posts
Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) released three recruitment notifications on 13 October 2026, covering a total of 988 vacancies across multiple services. The largest notification, Advertisement No. 37/2026, opens 686 Group 2 Services posts including Deputy Tahsildar, Goods and Service Tax Officer, and Municipal Commissioner Grade-III. Application for these posts opens on 10 November and closes on 30 November.
Separately, Notification No. 20/2026 invites applications for 196 Assistant Statistical Officer posts in the A.P. Economics and Statistical Subordinate Service, with applications open from 13 October to 2 November. Additionally, Notifications No. 31/2026 to 36/2026 cover 106 vacancies for Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspector, Assistant Director (Mines), Assistant Chemical Examiner, Royalty Inspector, Technical Assistant and Lab Assistant. The AMV Inspector posts require a motor driving licence with three years' experience. The upper age limit across all posts is 44 years as of 1 July 2026.
All applications are online at psc.ap.gov.in. The Group 2 selection will include a screening test, main exam, and computer proficiency test. The 196 ASO posts require only a bachelor's degree with Statistics as a main subject. The closing dates are 30 November for Group 2, 2 November for ASO, and 26 November for the 106 other posts.
Indian Opinion Analysis
For this round of APPSC notifications, all three outlets carry straight news agency style reporting with identical factual details from the official releases. Adda247 and FreeJobAlert each cover separate sets of vacancies, 196 ASO posts and 106 multi-department posts respectively, while Jagran Josh reports 686 Group 2 vacancies, none of the sources overlap on a single story. Uniform coverage means no framing differences exist across the sources on any shared event. The only editorial choice visible is which individual notification each outlet selected to lead with: Adda247 prioritised the 196 ASO posts, FreeJobAlert led on 106 vacancies including motor vehicle inspectors, and Jagran Josh gave prominence to the 686 Group 2 positions. With the Group 2 recruitment open from 10 November 2026 to 30 November 2026, the actual test of applicant interest will be measured by the number of applications the APPSC website receives by that deadline.
