Spices Board recruits 21 trainees for SC, ST candidates
The Spices Board, under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, has issued Notification No. 12/2026 for the recruitment of 21 Trainee (Development) posts. The vacancies are spread across 21 unit offices in Gangtok, Sakleshpur, Guwahati and other regions, and are reserved exclusively for Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe candidates.
Applicants must hold a Bachelor's Degree in Agriculture, Horticulture, Forestry, Botany, Microbiology or Biotechnology, with working knowledge of computers. Selected candidates will receive a stipend of Rs. 20,000 per month during the two-year training period. The selection process involves a walk-in written test scheduled on 22, 28 and 31 October 2026, depending on the unit office.
Online applications must be submitted at spicesboard.in/recruitment on or before 19 October 2026. The board has clarified that the training position does not guarantee regular employment and cannot be regularised at any stage.
Indian Opinion Analysis
This recruitment targets SC and ST graduates in agriculture and allied sciences, with 21 posts across remote unit offices. The stipend of Rs. 20,000 per month for two years, with one day of leave per month, reflects a fixed-term training scheme explicitly barred from conversion into a permanent job. Candidates must already hold their degree certificate, and those who previously trained at any Spices Board office are ineligible. The walk-in test dates in late October mean a short window for applicants to prepare and travel to their assigned centre.
