The Himachal Pradesh Rajya Chayan Aayog (HPRCA), Hamirpur has released e-admit cards for several recruitment exams scheduled through June 2026, and lakhs of candidates across the state are now logging in to grab their hall tickets. If you applied for any of the posts listed below, here’s everything you need — sorted, verified, and exam-ready.
Posts Covered in This Release
- Junior Basic Teacher (JBT) – Post Code 26015 (600 vacancies)

Exam Dates You Can’t Miss
The JBT exam (Post Code 26015) is being conducted in multiple shifts across June 13, 14, 16, and 17, 2026, as a Computer-Based Test. If your shift falls on June 17, note that the admit card download window for that date closes at 6:30 PM — don’t leave it for the last hour.
For the printing-trade posts — Steno Typist, Offset Operator, Fly Boy Offset, Photo Type Setter Operator, Plate Maker, Copy Holder, and Proof Reader — exact dates and shift timings vary by candidate, so check your individual call letter rather than relying on a general schedule.
How to Download Your Admit Card
- Go to the official HPRCA portal: hprca.hp.gov.in
- Open the “Admit Card / Recruitment” section from the homepage or notification ticker.
- Log in with your Registration/Application Number and Password (or Date of Birth).
- Hit submit, let your admit card load, then download the PDF and print 2–3 clear copies — you’ll need spares for later stages of selection.
A tip many candidates overlook: download early rather than waiting for exam-eve. Server load tends to spike in the final 24 hours before each exam date, and a failed download with no time to troubleshoot is an avoidable headache.
Double-Check These Details Before You Leave Home
Errors on admit cards aren’t rare, and catching one early gives you time to fix it. Verify:
- Full name and photograph/signature clarity
- Roll number and registration number
- Exam date, shift, and reporting time
- Exam centre name and complete address
If anything looks off, contact the HPRCA helpdesk immediately rather than hoping it sorts itself out at the gate.
Exam Day Rules That Actually Matter
- Arrive at least 2 hours early. Himachal’s exam centres are often spread across towns with limited transport, so build in buffer time.
- Gates close 30 minutes before the test starts — no exceptions, no late entries.
- Carry your printed admit card plus an original photo ID (Aadhaar, Voter ID, PAN, or Driving Licence). A photocopy or a phone screenshot won’t be accepted.
- Avoid carrying banned items — smartwatches, calculators, or any electronic gadgets — since most centres run strict bag checks.
With exam dates already underway for JBT and shift-specific schedules active for the technical posts, the priority right now is simple: download your admit card today, verify every detail on it, and plan your travel to the centre well in advance. Keep checking hprca.hp.gov.in directly for any last-minute updates, since commission notices can change shift timings or centre allotments without much notice.
