Strategy

MPSC Group C — How to prepare

From now to recommendation

  1. Get the typing certificate before the mains application Marathi 30 and English 40 for tax assistant, either for clerk-typist, or the MS-CIT-type certificate — it must be held by the mains closing date.
  2. Watch the commission for centres and admission cards The press note of 9 September promises them in due course for 3 January 2027; the mains date is to be re-announced.
  3. Prepare the general paper for both stages The prelims and mains Paper 2 cover the same ground at different lengths.
  4. Rank the cadres and offices Preferences among cadres and, for clerk-typists, appointing authorities are stated online and decide the posting.
  5. Keep the certificates within date

Confirm the structure against your own notification

MPSC and the state’s other recruiting bodies revise schemes, ratios and dates between cycles, and the advertisement for your cycle is the document that binds. The figures here are from the latest documents on the official sites at the date checked and are labelled where they come from an older cycle.
