Indian Navy opens 50 apprentice vacancies for IT-03 batch
The Naval Ship Repair Yard (NSRY), Sri Vijaya Puram, has invited online applications for 50 apprentice vacancies under the Indian Navy Apprentice Recruitment 2026 for the IT-03 Batch 2026-27. The recruitment covers 13 trades including Electrician, Fitter, Welder, and Mechanic (Diesel). Candidates who have completed ITI in the relevant trade can apply through the apprenticeship portal.
The application process opened on 17 August 2026 and will close at 11:51 PM on 10 October 2026. The one-year training programme is tentatively set to start on 1 December 2026. Selection will be based on merit list, interview, document verification and medical examination. There is no upper age limit for applicants.
Indian Opinion Analysis
This is a standard annual intake by NSRY, a key naval maintenance unit in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The 50 vacancies are modest compared to larger Navy recruitments, but the island location may affect applicant interest. Under the Apprentices Act 1961, apprentices are not employees but get a stipend and a certificate. The next date to watch is 10 October 2026, after which the merit list will be drawn.
