The Indian Coast Guard Regional Headquarters (East) in Chennai has invited offline applications for five Group 'C' posts: Store Keeper Grade-II, Engine Driver, Lascar, Civilian Motor Transport Driver (Ordinary Grade), and MTS (MT Cleaner). The positions fall under Pay Levels 01, 02, and 04 in the pay matrix. Eligibility varies by post, from 10th or 12th pass to a certificate of competency as Engine Driver and relevant experience.

The Indian Coast Guard has opened five Group 'C' posts across three pay levels, yet the notification does not state the number of vacancies or any application fee. Candidates must apply only by Ordinary Post, with applications rejected summarily if the envelope lacks the prescribed superscription. The 21 December 2026 deadline applies, though a separate 45-day window from the Employment News publication may cause confusion. Those employed in government departments must route their application through proper channels with an NOC. The vague vacancy figure leaves applicants without a sense of competition, while the postal-only requirement may disadvantage candidates in remote areas.
