Notification No.
CO/APPR/2026/01
Total Vacancies
134, across Civil, Electrical, Electronics, Mechanical Engineering, and General Stream
Candidates must have passed their qualifying examination during 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, or 2025, in BE/B.Tech, Diploma in Engineering (Civil/Electrical/Electronics/Mechanical), or a Bachelor’s degree in Arts/Science/Commerce/Business Administration/Management/Journalism for the General Stream category.

Stipend
Graduate Apprentices receive ₹12,300/month; Technician (Diploma) Apprentices receive ₹10,900/month, combining the Government’s DBT share and KRCL’s Establishment share.
Selection Process
Selection is based on a merit list from academic marks, followed by document verification — there is no written examination. Candidates must have a valid, approved NATS ID at the time of document verification.
How to Register
Register on the NATS portal and obtain an approved NATS ID before your scheduled document verification date.
Report to the Executives Club, Konkan Rail Vihar, Sector-40, Navi Mumbai, between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM on your designated date.
Carry original documents plus self-attested photocopies for verification, along with a valid NATS ID.
Ensure you have a bank account in your own name and a PAN card for stipend disbursement via DBT.
No — candidates must register on the NATS portal and attend Document Verification directly.
When is Document Verification scheduled?
24 to 28 August 2026, discipline-wise.
How many training slots are available?
134, across Civil, Electrical, Electronics, Mechanical Engineering, and General Stream.
Does completing this apprenticeship guarantee a job at KRCL?
No — it’s not obligatory for KRCL to offer employment to apprentices after training.
Since this drive skips a formal online application in favor of direct Document Verification, make sure your NATS ID is approved well before your scheduled date — showing up without one could mean missing your slot entirely.
