When will the SEBI Grade A 2026 notification come?
SEBI does not publish a fixed calendar. The 2024 advertisement came out in June 2024 and the 2025 one on 30 October 2025, so the timing has varied. If SEBI follows the last cycle, a notification in the coming months, with Phase I early in 2027, is possible. Treat this as a likely window, not a date.
What to check when the 2026 advertisement comes
- Number of posts in your stream, and whether an addendum later adds more, as happened in 2025.
- The date age is counted on. In 2025 it was 30 September 2025.
- Changes in the syllabus, especially Paper 2 for your stream.
- The two-stream rule. In 2025, a candidate could apply for at most two streams, with a separate application and fee for each.
How to apply
- Open SEBI's careers page (sebi.gov.in, About, Careers) and select the Officer Grade A recruitment.
- Register and fill the online form for your stream. A second stream needs a separate application and fee.
- Choose up to three cities for Phase I and one for Phase II.
- Pay the fee: ₹1,000 + 18% GST for UR/OBC/EWS, ₹100 + 18% GST for SC/ST/PwBD (2025 figures).
