MPESB Naib Tehsildar Vacancy Details 2026

The 73 Naib Tehsildar posts are divided between two separate feeder cadres – candidates from the clerical service cadre compete for one set of posts, while candidates from the Patwari/Revenue Inspector cadre compete for a separate set. Each cadre also has its own backlog posts.

Clerical Service Cadre – Naib Tehsildar (46 posts)

Within the 32 direct-recruitment clerical-cadre posts, 1 post is reserved for persons with locomotor disability (as part of the overall PwD reservation policy), and 35% of posts across categories are horizontally reserved for women.

Patwari/Revenue Inspector Cadre – Naib Tehsildar (27 posts)

As per the notification, 35% of posts are horizontally reserved for women in each category, and this reservation is applied both segment-wise and department-wise. No unfilled women’s-quota post is carried forward – such posts are filled by male candidates of the same category instead.

MPESB Naib Tehsildar Age Limit

The maximum age limit for this departmental limited competitive exam is 55 years as on 1 January 2026.
