UPSSSC Instructor Draftsman (Mechanical) Interview Shortlist 2026: Advt. 16(4)/2016

UPSSSC Instructor Draftsman (Mechanical) interview shortlist 2026

The Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UPSSSC) has published a notice for candidates connected with the Instructor Draftsman (Mechanical) post under the control of the Directorate of Training and Employment, Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow. The notice concerns the NTC/NAC qualification stream and lists candidates who have been included provisionally for the interview process.

Latest update — 6 August 2026: The exact official PDF is dated 3 August 2026. It identifies the post, the provisional interview-shortlist process and the attached registration-number list. The notice states that the interview is scheduled for 24 August 2026; its detailed programme will be published separately.

Recruitment cycle: 2016 (Advertisement 16(4)/2016). The 2026 notice is a current stage update for that recruitment cycle, not a new online application notice.

What the official notice confirms

• Recruiting body: Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UPSSSC).
• Controlling department and location: Directorate of Training and Employment, Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow.
• Post: Instructor Draftsman (Mechanical), under the NTC/NAC stream described in the notice.
• Selection stage: Candidates are identified as eligible or provisionally eligible for interview, subject to verification of the required records and certificates.
• Interview date: 24 August 2026, with the detailed schedule to be published separately.

The notice includes an annexure containing registration numbers of the candidates identified for the interview process. A registration number in that annexure should not be treated as a final appointment or an unconditional final-selection result: the notice makes participation subject to the commission's verification and approval process.

Representation deadline in the notice

The notice says that an applicant who submitted the final online application, holds the required qualification and meets the published score or cutoff conditions, but whose name is not in the eligible or provisionally eligible list, could submit a representation with copies of the relevant qualification, preference and experience documents at the commission's Lucknow office by 3 August 2026 at 5:00 pm.

That representation deadline has passed as of 6 August 2026. Do not rely on this article as a new opportunity to file a representation. Any later instruction from UPSSSC will supersede this procedural information only if the commission publishes it in a fresh official notice.

How to check your status safely

1. Open the exact official UPSSSC notice PDF.
2. Confirm that the heading refers to Advertisement 16(4)/2016 and Instructor Draftsman (Mechanical).
3. Search the annexure for the registration number used in the final application.
4. Read the conditions attached to provisional eligibility before relying on the interview date.
5. Keep the qualification, experience and other records mentioned in the notice available for verification.

Interview date and next notice

The official PDF states that the interview for the candidates who are eligible or provisionally eligible is scheduled for 24 August 2026. It also says that the detailed interview programme will be published separately. Candidates should therefore check the commission's subsequent official notice for reporting time, venue instructions, document requirements and any change in schedule.

The 3 August 2026 notice is the evidence for this update. It is not evidence that every applicant has been finally selected, and it does not announce a fresh application window. The recruitment cycle remains Advertisement 16(4)/2016, while the current status update is dated 2026.
