The Himachal Pradesh Rajya Chayan Aayog (HPRCA), Hamirpur, has invited online applications for 2,238 teacher posts in government schools across Himachal Pradesh. The advertisement was issued on 2 November 2026, and the online application window opens on 10 November 2026 and closes on 5 December 2026.

This is a separate recruitment from the HPRCA PGT recruitment for 2,423 posts that was advertised earlier. Do not mix the two advertisements — they have different post codes, vacancy counts and application windows.

Post-wise vacancies

The 2,238 posts are spread across 15 subjects, with post codes 26046 to 26060:

Salary

Selected candidates will be paid a fixed honorarium of ₹30,000 per month for 10 months in an academic year. This is a fixed honorarium, not a regular pay scale with allowances. Candidates should read the official notification carefully to understand the full service conditions before applying.

Who can apply

  • Age limit: 18 to 45 years as on 1 January 2026.
  • Qualification: Candidates must have the prescribed educational qualification for their subject, and must have qualified the Himachal Pradesh Teacher Eligibility Test (HP TET) for the relevant subject. Check the official notification for the exact qualification required for each subject before applying.
  • Domicile: Candidates should check the domicile and other eligibility conditions in the official advertisement.

Selection process

Selection will be through a computer-based test or written screening test. The test will have 120 multiple-choice questions for 120 marks, to be answered in 90 minutes. No negative marking has been reported for this test, but candidates should confirm the marking scheme in the official notification.

Application fee

There is a conflict in the information available at the time of writing: the body text of the himexam.com report mentions a fee of ₹100, while its fee table lists ₹800 for all categories. Treat the fee as ₹800 unless the official notification says otherwise, and confirm the exact fee on hprca.hp.gov.in before paying. Do not pay any fee on any other website.

How to apply

Apply online only through the official HPRCA website, hprca.hp.gov.in, between 10 November and 5 December 2026. Read the full advertisement first, keep your educational certificates, TET certificate and other documents ready, and submit the form well before the last date to avoid last-minute server problems.

With 2,238 posts across 15 subjects, this is one of the largest teacher recruitments in Himachal Pradesh this year. Candidates who have already qualified HP TET should use the time before 10 November to check their subject’s qualification requirements and get their documents in order.
