The ASI/Executive (LDCE)-2023 examination is a departmental examination for serving personnel only — it is not an open recruitment. The three Constable examinations on 1 December 2026 are for the 2024 recruitment cycles, whose applications closed earlier.

This post is an exam-date update for recruitments whose applications have already closed. Candidates should refer to their respective recruitment notifications for the full vacancy and eligibility details.

The age limit for these recruitments is given in their respective notifications. This post covers only the announcement of the examination dates, so no age figure is repeated here — candidates should refer to the recruitment notification for the age limit and relaxation rules.

The Computer Based Examination is the written stage of these recruitments. Candidates who qualify in the CBE will proceed to the next stages prescribed in their respective recruitment notifications, which include the Physical Standard Test, Physical Efficiency Test, trade test (where applicable), document verification and medical examination. The exact stage-wise process differs by post — candidates should check the notification for their own recruitment.

The CBE will be conducted in Computer Based Examination mode on 30 November and 1 December 2026, in the shifts given in the schedule above. The detailed paper pattern — subjects, number of questions, marks and duration — is given in the respective recruitment notifications. Candidates should check the official notification for the exact scheme, since no paper details are asserted in this update.
