No—the MPSC Group C application deadlines reported for 2026 have passed. The “1,800+ posts” figure appears to refer to a separate Group C mains notice reporting 1,884 vacancies, not the combined preliminary recruitment cycle. Check the relevant advertisement and any corrigendum on the official MPSC announcements page before relying on dates or vacancy totals.
Is the MPSC Group B/C application deadline today?
As of October 8, 2026, the surfaced application deadlines for the MPSC Group C notices discussed here have passed. The reported windows ended in June, July, or August 2026. The “apply today” framing is therefore not current for those notices.
The official MPSC announcements page is the place to verify whether a newer notice is available, whether a corrigendum changed a deadline, and whether an application portal is open. The available official-site result identifies the commission’s announcements page but does not establish the current status of a particular recruitment notice.
What does the “1,800+ posts” figure refer to?
Careers360 reported 1,884 vacancies for the MPSC Group C Services mains exam 2026, with applications from May 21 through June 4, 2026. That is a mains-stage notice, and its reported application window has closed. It should not be treated as the vacancy count for a separate combined preliminary recruitment notice.

Why do reports give different Group C vacancy totals?
The figures refer to different notices or reporting stages. They are not one combined total.
| Reported figure | Notice or stage | Reported dates | Qualification |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,884 vacancies | Group C Services mains exam 2026 | Applications May 21–June 4, 2026 | Reported by Careers360 for the mains-stage notice. |
| 2,619 posts | Group C combined preliminary recruitment, Advertisement No. 017/2026 | Applications June 27–July 17, 2026; fee payment through July 20; preliminary exam reported for September 27 | Initial count and dates reported by Jagran Josh. Free Press Journal also reported a July 17 deadline at 11:59 PM. |
| 5,707 posts | Later report on the Group C recruitment | Application deadline reported as August 10, 2026; preliminary exam reported for October 25 | Revised count and dates reported by Jagran Josh; the official corrigendum was not available in the surfaced results, so treat these as secondary reporting rather than independently confirmed official details. |

Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.Which posts and eligibility should applicants check?
Coverage of the initial combined preliminary notice names posts including Clerk-Typist, Tax Assistant, Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspector, Industry Inspector, and Technical Assistant. The mains coverage names Udyog Nirikshak and Kar Sahayak among its posts. These lists do not establish the complete post inventory or the eligibility rules for every position.
Use the exact advertisement for the notice you intend to apply to. Confirm the post, department, eligibility, vacancy count, exam stage, application dates, fee deadline, and any amendments against the advertisement and corrigendum on the MPSC announcements page. Do not infer eligibility from a different Group C notice.

How to verify the notice before taking action
- Open the official MPSC announcements page.
- Locate the exact Group B or Group C advertisement and note its number and exam stage. Do not assume a mains notice and a combined prelims notice are the same recruitment.
- Check the advertisement and every related corrigendum for the final vacancy count, post list, eligibility, application closing date, fee-payment deadline, and exam schedule.
- Use the official application link attached to that notice, if its application window is open. If the deadline has passed, rely on an official extension or fresh notice—not an older article headline—to determine whether applications are possible.
