Bengaluru City Civil Court Jobs 2026 – 110 Vacancies Open for Peon, Driver, Typist & More (Apply by 30 July)
If you’re from Karnataka and looking for a stable government job without needing a degree, this one’s worth your full attention. The Nagar Civil Nyayalaya (City Civil Court), Bengaluru has just released two official recruitment notifications for 110 vacancies across posts like Peon (Javana), Driver, Typist Grade-III, Process Server, and more — and the application window is surprisingly short. It opens on 1 July 2026 and closes on 30 July 2026.
Both notifications (No. Aa.Vi.1(9)/429/2026 and No. Aa.Vi.1(9)/428/2026, dated 24 June 2026) are Karnataka (371-B) direct recruitments, meaning these seats are specifically carved out under the Hyderabad Karnataka region reservation framework. This makes it especially relevant if you belong to the districts covered under Article 371(J) of the Constitution.

Bengaluru City Civil Court Recruitment 2026 Eligibility Criteria
Educational Qualification
| Post | Minimum Qualification |
|---|---|
| Typist Grade-III | Second PUC pass (or 3-year Diploma in Commercial Practice) + Senior Grade in Kannada & English Typing and Shorthand from the Public Education Department (or equivalent Diploma) — current students are also eligible |

One thing to note here — the eligibility for Typist and Peon (Attender) is slightly higher than the other posts. You need the typing proficiency certificate alongside your 12th or diploma. If you’re currently enrolled in those courses, you can still apply, which is a helpful provision.

Bengaluru City Civil Court Recruitment 2026 Salary Details
| Post | Pay Scale |
|---|---|
| Typist Grade-III | ₹44,425 – ₹83,700 (with incremental steps) |
| Peon / Attender | ₹34,100 – ₹67,600 |
| Driver | ₹34,100 – ₹67,600 |
| Process Server | ₹31,775 – ₹61,300 |
| Peon / Guard (Javana) | ₹27,000 – ₹46,675 |
These are Karnataka Government pay scales with periodic increments — what you start at isn’t what you’ll be drawing in five years. Government allowances like DA, HRA, and travel allowance are additional, which meaningfully bump up the in-hand amount in a city like Bengaluru.
For a Peon (Javana) starting around ₹27,000, the actual take-home after allowances in many Karnataka government setups can comfortably exceed ₹35,000-₹38,000, especially in Bengaluru city postings.
Selection Process
Typist Grade-III
- Written Test — based on marks in qualifying exam
- Typing Test — 120-word passage in Kannada and English, minimum 45 WPM; maximum 100 marks, must score at least 50 to qualify
- Interview / Oral Test — marks added to aggregate
- Final merit list based on combined score of all three stages
Peon / Attender

Probation Period: All selected candidates serve a 2-year probation from the date of joining, extendable until performance is deemed satisfactory.
Tie-breaking Rule: If two candidates score equally, the older candidate ranks higher; if still tied, the more qualified candidate gets precedence.

How to Apply – Step-by-Step
- Visit the official recruitment portal: bengaluru.dcourts.gov.in/recruitment-status-ccc
- Read the full notification PDF for the post you’re applying for — both notifications cover different cadres and categories, so don’t mix them up
- Register using a valid email ID and mobile number — all communication (including interview/test call letters) will go only to these details
- Fill in the online application form accurately — personal details, educational background, category details
- Upload required documents — self-attested scanned copies of relevant certificates and a recent photograph
- Pay the application fee via SBI Collect in the exact prescribed name — SC/ST/Cat-I/PwD candidates skip this step entirely
- Do not upload the fee payment receipt — just pay and continue
- Submit the application — note down your application number
- If you submit multiple applications, only the last one will be considered; earlier submissions are ignored automatically
- Watch your registered email/mobile for written test / driving test / interview call letters
Applications in any offline, postal, or in-person mode will not be accepted under any circumstances.
Common Mistakes to Avoid Bengaluru City Civil Court Recruitment 2026
Even strong candidates have lost eligibility due to avoidable errors. Here’s what to watch out for:
- Wrong payee name on fee: Must be “Vitteeshadhikariyavaru, Nagar Civil Nyayalaya, Bengaluru” — exactly. Wrong name = disqualification.
- Uploading the fee receipt: Don’t do it. The form doesn’t ask for it.
- Using a light vehicle licence for Driver posts: Only a valid Heavy Motor Vehicle (HMV) licence qualifies.
- Category certificate from outside Karnataka: Must be issued by the Karnataka Government. Certificates from other states or in non-prescribed formats will not be accepted.
- Submitting multiple applications hoping one gets through: Doesn’t work — only the last submission is processed.
- Wrong email/mobile at registration: All communication goes there. Wrong details = missing your exam date.
- Ignoring the sub-caste footnote for SC (Cat-C) backlog seat: It goes to the 59 most backward sub-castes first. Read the notification carefully.
