Gramin Dak Sevak (GDS) Recruitment 2026 • Application Modification Notice

URGENT: CORRECTION WINDOW CLOSES TOMORROW (25 SEP 23:59 IST)

The Department of Posts (India Post) reminds all registered applicants of the Gramin Dak Sevak (GDS) 2026 cycle that the online application correction window is currently active and will permanently close tomorrow, 25 September 2026 at 23:59 IST. Candidates who have identified discrepancies in their applicant name, parentage, community category, board details, or marks entered must finalize their edits on indiapostgdsonline.gov.in immediately.

Since the GDS selection process is purely merit-based with zero written examination, even a minor discrepancy between your submitted application data and your Class 10 marksheet will result in disqualification during physical Document Verification (DV).

  • Community Category Certificate: Verify that your Category (OBC-NCL, EWS, SC, ST) matches the certificate that will be presented during DV. Failing to produce a valid category certificate revokes selection.
