Download the APSC AE Hall Ticket
Accessing your admit card requires only your application credentials – no additional registration is needed. Follow these steps:
- Go to apsc.nic.in and locate the admit card section on the homepage.
- Find the link titled “Admit Card for Assistant Engineer (Civil/Mechanical/Chemical), Advt No. 31/2025.”
- Click the download link and enter your Application ID and Password (or Date of Birth, as prompted).
- The admit card will open on your screen.
- Print it immediately – a physical copy is mandatory for exam entry.
Do not wait until exam day to download; the portal may experience heavy traffic on 8th August, and printing takes time.
Critical Details to Verify Before Exam Day
Once your admit card is downloaded, check every field for accuracy. Errors discovered after 8th August may not be corrected:
- Full name, date of birth, and registration number match your application.
- Exam date, time, and centre location are clearly visible.
- Your engineering discipline (Civil, Mechanical, or Chemical) is correctly listed.
- The photograph is clear and recognisable.
If you spot any error, contact APSC immediately via the official website – do not assume it will be corrected on exam day. Mismatched details can delay your entry or invalidate your candidature.
Exam Schedule & Reporting Instructions
The screening test runs across two papers on a single day:
| Paper | Subject | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Paper I | General Studies | 10:00 AM – 12:00 Noon |
| Paper II | Engineering Subject (Civil / Mechanical / Chemical) | 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM |
Arrive at your assigned exam centre at least 30 minutes before the first session begins. Gate closure and candidate verification will take time. Latecomers risk not being allowed inside.
What to Carry to the Exam Centre
Your printed admit card and a valid original photo ID are non-negotiable. APSC will accept any one of the following:
- Aadhaar Card
- Voter ID Card
- Driving Licence
- Passport
- PAN Card
- Bank Passbook with photograph
- College or Employee ID
- Any other government-issued photo identification
The ID must be in your name and legible. Expired IDs are generally accepted if the photograph is still recognisable.
What Is Not Allowed
Leave these at home – they will be confiscated, or you will be asked to leave the hall:
- Mobile phones and smartwatches
- Calculators and electronic devices
- Bluetooth or wireless gadgets
- Any written notes or study material
Candidates found with prohibited items may be disqualified from the entire recruitment process.
If Your Admit Card Contains an Error
If you notice a discrepancy after downloading:
- Do not ignore it. Visit the official website and look for a grievance or correction portal, or contact APSC’s help centre via the listed email or phone number on the notice.
- Provide evidence: have your original application form and a clear photo of the error ready.
- Act before 8th August. The examination authority typically stops processing corrections 24 hours before the exam.
- Request a corrected admit card in writing if the error is on their end, and keep proof of your communication.
If a correction cannot be made, you may appeal during document verification after the screening test – but it is better to resolve it now.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Can I download my admit card without my password?
Ans. No. APSC requires either your Application ID with password, or your application number with date of birth. If you have forgotten your password, use the “Forgot Password” option on the login portal to reset it using your registered email or mobile number.
Q2. Is a printed admit card mandatory, or can I show it on my mobile?
Ans. A physical printout is mandatory. You cannot enter the exam hall with only a digital copy on your phone. Print it on A4 white paper with clear, legible text and bring it along with your original photo ID.
Q3. My admit card shows the wrong exam centre. What should I do?
Ans. Contact APSC immediately via the official website’s grievance section or the contact details provided in the notification. Do not assume the centre will be changed on exam day. Request a corrected admit card in writing and keep proof of your request.
Q4. The photograph on my admit card is unclear. Can I get it reissued?
Ans. If the photograph quality is genuinely unreadable, contact APSC and request a reprint. However, minor quality issues are usually not grounds for a replacement. Bring your admit card as-is; invigilators will cross-check your face against your photo ID.
Q5. What is the difference between General Studies (Paper I) and Engineering Subject (Paper II)?
Ans. Paper I tests your general knowledge and analytical skills and applies to all candidates regardless of discipline. Paper II is discipline-specific – you will answer questions only for Civil, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering based on your chosen post. Your admit card will specify which Paper II you will take.
Q6. Can I use a copy of my admit card instead of the original printout?
Ans. A photocopy or poor-quality print is risky – bring a clear, original printout on white A4 paper. Digital copies are not acceptable.
Q7. Do I need to bring my application form along with the admit card?
Ans. The admit card and photo ID are sufficient for the screening test. However, keep your application confirmation email or reference number safe for reference during document verification.
