The selection process for CCI Various Post Recruitment 2026 includes:

• Computer-Based Test (CBT)
• Document verification
• Medical fitness examination

Candidates who meet the required standard in the online examination may be shortlisted for document verification under CCI Various Post Recruitment 2026. Simply achieving the minimum qualifying marks does not guarantee selection or a document verification call. CCI may set a higher cut-off depending on the number of applicants and available vacancies. Final appointment will be subject to the selected candidate being found medically fit.

The online examination will contain 120 objective questions carrying one mark each. Candidates will receive 120 minutes to complete the test.

For every incorrect answer, 0.25 marks will be deducted. Candidates should avoid random guessing because four wrong answers can reduce one full mark.
