Applications will be accepted online from 17 October until 10 November 2026, with a closing time of 11:59 PM. The vacancies include 44 posts for Tax Assistant, 9 for Stenographer Grade II, and 66 for Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS). Selected candidates will receive a pay scale ranging from Rs 18,000 to Rs 81,100, depending on the post. Applicants must meet educational, age, and sports eligibility criteria, with age calculated as of 1 August 2026. The selection process includes scrutiny of applications, shortlisting based on sports performance, a field proficiency test, and skill tests where applicable. Candidates can apply through the official website incometaxdelhi.gov.in. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The notification opens 119 positions to sportspersons, with the bulk of vacancies, 66, at the MTS level, which requires only a 10th pass and has a lower age ceiling of 25 years. Applicants must hold themselves to the 10 November deadline and the age cutoff of 1 August 2026, both set in the notice. The selection weights sports performance heavily through a shortlisting and field proficiency test, meaning raw athletic achievement could matter more than academic marks for many candidates. The official application link goes live on 17 October. ## Coverage - adda247.com Straight listing of vacancies, dates and eligibility with no evaluative framing This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
