The theoretical entry basic pay is Rs. 19,900. With the Dearness Allowance (DA) updated to 53% (Rs. 10,547), House Rent Allowance (HRA) for Class Z areas like Nadia at 9% (Rs. 1,791), and Transport Allowance (TA) of Rs. 1,350 plus DA on TA (Rs. 716), the gross monthly salary equivalent stands at Rs. 34,304.

The recruitment process strictly adheres to the West Bengal State Government and DoPT OM reservation guidelines.

A 10% vertical quota is reserved for the Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) as per standard rules. Female candidates are eligible for age concessions and fee exemptions where applicable.
