UIIC AO Recruitment 2026: 225 Administrative Officer Scale I Posts for Graduates

United India Insurance Company Limited has opened online applications for 225 Administrative Officer (Scale I) posts. This is a wholly government-owned general insurance company, so it is a full central public sector job with an officer-grade pay scale. Basic pay starts at ₹82,485 per month and the gross comes to roughly ₹1,10,000 per month at metropolitan centres. If you are a graduate under 30 and have been preparing for banking and insurance sector exams, this is one of the biggest openings of the year.

It opens on 8 September 2026 and closes on 28 September 2026 1 October 2026 (extended), and there is no offline route at all. There are two separate streams here — Generalists and Hindi Officers — and you may apply for only one of them. Read this full guide on GovtJobsAlert.in before you register, because the stream cannot be changed later.

What are the Key Highlights of UIIC AO Recruitment 2026?

How Many Vacancies are There in UIIC AO Recruitment 2026?

The 225 posts are split across two streams, and the reservation is different in each. Check the row for the stream you are applying to, not the grand total.

PostCategory-wise VacanciesTotal
AO Scale I — GeneralistsUR 68 / SC 30 / ST 18 / OBC 62 / EWS 22200
AO Scale I — Hindi OfficersUR 11 / SC 4 / ST 1 / OBC 7 / EWS 225

PwBD reservation is horizontal, which means these seats sit inside the 200 and 25 above and are not extra posts. Do not add them to the totals.

PostPwBD Seats (within the total)Total
GeneralistsVI 2 / HI 2 / OC 4 / MD-ID 311
Hindi OfficersVI 1 / HI 0 / OC 0 / MD-ID 01

Look closely at the Hindi Officers row. It carries only one PwBD seat, for a visually impaired candidate. There is no seat at all for hearing impaired, orthopaedically challenged or multiple/intellectual disability candidates in that stream. If you fall in one of those groups and want a PwBD seat, the Generalists stream is the one that has them. The company also states that category-wise numbers are provisional and may change, and that EWS seats depend on further government directives and any court outcome.

What is the Eligibility for UIIC AO Recruitment 2026?

UIIC AO Educational Qualification 2026

PostRequirement
GeneralistsGraduate or Post Graduate degree in any discipline with minimum 60% marks (55% for SC / ST / PwBD)
Hindi OfficersMaster’s degree in Hindi or English, or in another subject, with the Hindi–English subject or medium combination the notification prescribes, with 60% marks (55% for SC / ST / PwBD)

The Generalists stream is genuinely open to every discipline — engineering, arts, science, commerce, agriculture, data science and anything else — so do not rule yourself out because your degree is not commerce. If you are a graduate from any stream, you can apply. Working knowledge of computers is compulsory for both streams.

Three conditions here decide who actually gets through. Your degree must come from a UGC or AICTE approved institution through the 10+2+3 or an equivalent pattern, and it must be completed on or before 30 June 2026. If you sat the final exam by that date but your result came out afterwards, you are not eligible — that single line rejects thousands of final-year students every cycle. And if your university gives only a CGPA, you need its conversion certificate, because fractions are ignored and 59.99% counts as below 60%.

UIIC AO Age Limit 2026 and Age Relaxation

Minimum 21 years and maximum 30 years as on 30 June 2026. You must be born no earlier than 30 June 1996 and no later than 30 June 2005, both days included. Note that this cut-off is not the application deadline — calculate your age on 30 June 2026.

CategoryAge Relaxation
SC / ST5 years
OBC (Non-Creamy Layer)3 years
PwBD10 years
Ex-servicemen, Commissioned Officers and ECOs/SSCOs (5 years military service; clause widened by corrigendum)5 years
Defence personnel disabled in operations3 years
Widows, divorced and legally separated women9 years
Confirmed employees of public sector general insurance companies8 years

Relaxation is cumulative if you qualify under more than one category, but your age can never cross 45 years even after adding everything.

What is the Salary for UIIC AO Recruitment 2026?

ComponentAmount
Pay Scale₹82,485 – ₹1,39,185 – ₹1,56,745
Starting Basic Pay₹82,485 per month
Approximate Gross₹1,10,000 per month at metro centres
BenefitsGratuity, leave travel subsidy, medical benefits, group personal accident insurance, NPS and leased accommodation

Two conditions come attached to that salary and you should know them before you apply. Probation is one year, and confirmation happens only after you pass the non-life Licentiate Examination of the Insurance Institute of India — failing to pass it within the extended probation makes you liable to termination. Second, you must sign a five-year guarantee bond. Resigning early costs liquidated damages of up to one year’s gross salary plus ₹35,000 towards onboarding cost, reduced proportionately after you finish probation.

What is the Selection Process and Exam Pattern for UIIC AO Recruitment 2026?

StageDetail
Tier IPreliminary Exam — qualifying only, marks not counted in the final merit
Tier IIMain Exam — objective test plus a descriptive test
InterviewUp to three times the vacancies per category are called
Final stepsCertificate verification, biometric check and medical fitness

The final merit list is built from your Tier II marks and interview marks in a 75:25 ratio. Preliminary marks never count for either stream. For Generalists the descriptive test is also excluded from merit, but for Hindi Officers the descriptive marks do count, because their Tier II total includes both the objective and the descriptive test. There is a section-wise cut-off and an overall cut-off in each category, so you cannot make up a weak section elsewhere.

There is negative marking. One fourth of the marks assigned to a question is deducted for every wrong answer, in both the Preliminary and the Main examination. Questions left blank carry no penalty, so guessing wildly will pull your score down.

Tier I — Preliminary, same for both streams (100 marks, 60 minutes)Questions / MarksTime
English Language30 / 3020 min

Quantitative Aptitude35 / 3520 min

Professional Knowledge (Hindi, English, translation)50 / 10050 min
General Awareness25 / 2510 min
Computer Knowledge25 / 2510 min
Descriptive — essays, letter and translation5 / 5060 min

Each section is separately timed and you cannot carry spare minutes forward. Our exam syllabus and preparation guides can help you structure those weeks. Online pre-examination training is offered to SC, ST, OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) and PwBD candidates — tick that column in the application form if you want it.
