Income Tax has invited applications from sportspersons to fill 119 posts under a sports quota, including 66 Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS), 44 Tax Assistants and nine Stenographer Grade II roles. The application deadline is 10 November 2026.

Applicants must meet age and educational criteria as of 31 August 2026. MTS posts require Class 10 pass, Stenographer Grade II requires Class 12, and Tax Assistants need a bachelor's degree. The age limit is 18 to 27 years.
Selection will be based on sports achievements, consistency, age and qualifications as declared in the online application. The posts are temporary but likely to be permanent, with a two-year probation period. Candidates can apply at incometaxdelhi.gov.in.
The notification targets sportspersons for 119 posts across three grades, with Tax Assistant and Multi-Tasking Staff making up the bulk. The eligibility cut-off date of 31 August 2026 means applicants must have already completed their qualifying exam. Selection will rely entirely on the online portal's data, no offline submissions will be considered after the 10 November deadline. The temporary nature of the posts, with a two-year probation, leaves permanent absorption pending confirmation under departmental rules.
