The Office of the District and Sessions Judge, Nuh (Haryana) has issued a fresh employment notice dated 6 November 2026 for the Nuh District Court Stenographer Recruitment 2026. Through this notice, 8 posts of Stenographer Grade-III will be filled purely on an ad hoc basis in the Nuh Sessions Division at a consolidated pay of Rs 25,500 per month. This is an offline recruitment — there is no online form, and the notice does not prescribe any application fee. Your application, written on plain paper with a latest passport-size photograph pasted on it, must reach the office of the District and Sessions Judge, Nuh before 25 November 2026, 5:00 PM, and the shorthand test is fixed for 30 November 2026 at 10:00 AM — just five days after the last date. One confusion to clear right away: most pages ranking for this search still show a March 2026 notice with a 24 March last date. That round is over. The dates in this article are from the new November notice. Candidates looking at other Haryana recruitments can also read our HKRN Vacancy 2026 guide.

Nuh Court Stenographer Vacancy 2026 – Post Details
The notice invites applications for 8 posts of Stenographer Grade-III in the Nuh Sessions Division. Every one of these posts is ad hoc: the engagement runs initially for six months, or until regular appointments are made by the Hon’ble Punjab and Haryana High Court, whichever happens earlier, and selected candidates will serve in Nuh district. The category-wise break-up of the eight posts, as printed in the notice, is:
| Category | Posts |
|---|---|
| General | 3 |
| SC (Deprived) | 1 |
| BC-A | 2 |
| ESM (BC-B) | 1 |
| EWS | 1 |
| Total | 8 |
Fill the category column of your application carefully — the category you claim decides the caste / category certificate you must attach with it.
Why an ad hoc court post still matters. Stenographers are the backbone of a courtroom — every order and deposition passes through their shorthand notes. For a graduate with genuine shorthand speed, this is paid, on-record court experience at Rs 25,500 a month with no fee and no written examination standing in the way. Just walk in with your eyes open: it is a temporary engagement, not a permanent appointment, and it does not convert into one automatically.
Nuh Court Stenographer Eligibility Criteria 2026
Age limit. You must have completed 18 years of age as on 1 January 2026. The notice fixes no upper age limit of its own — the upper age limit is as per the latest instructions of the Haryana Government, and the relaxations admissible to SC, BC-A and BC-B candidates of Haryana and to in-service candidates apply as fixed by the government from time to time. Only the date of birth recorded in your matriculation certificate should be treated as final — write exactly that date in the application.
Educational qualification. A Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree, or an equivalent degree, from a recognised university. You must also have passed matriculation with Hindi as one of the subjects — a condition many candidates miss. Eligibility is judged under Rule 7 of the Haryana Subordinate Courts Establishment (Recruitment and General Conditions of Service) Rules, 1997, the same rules that govern subordinate-court recruitment across Haryana.
Shorthand and transcription speed — the real eligibility. A degree alone does not make you eligible to sit the test in any meaningful sense. You must be able to take dictation in English shorthand at 80 words per minute and transcribe it on a computer at 20 words per minute. This is the skill the whole selection turns on; if your shorthand is at 50–60 wpm today, be honest with yourself before spending the month on this application.
Computer knowledge. Proficiency in operation of computers is an express condition in the notice — the transcription itself is done on a computer, and a separate computer proficiency test follows the shorthand test.
Who can apply. Any candidate who meets the age, degree and skill conditions above. Candidates already in service must attach a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from their employer with the application.
Nuh Court Stenographer Application Fee 2026
| Category | Application Fee |
|---|---|
| All categories | No fee prescribed in the notice |
The notice does not prescribe any application fee — it asks for no demand draft, no postal order and no online payment with the application. If any website or agent asks you to pay to “submit” this form, that money is not going to the court. Your only real costs are photocopies, photographs and postage.
How to Apply for Nuh Court Stenographer Recruitment 2026
- Read the employment notice dated 6 November 2026 on the official website, nuh.dcourts.gov.in, and note the application format given in it — its subject line reads “Application for the post of Stenographer on adhoc basis”.
- Write or type your application neatly on plain paper in that format: your name, father’s / husband’s name, date of birth, permanent and correspondence address, educational qualifications, category, shorthand and computer qualifications, experience if any, and a working mobile number.
- Attach self-attested copies of your documents — matriculation certificate (for date of birth), degree and marks sheets, category certificate if you claim one, and any shorthand / computer certificate you hold.
- Paste a latest passport-size photograph on the application and sign it.
- Put the application and enclosures in an envelope. The notice prescribes no envelope superscription — just make sure the application itself carries the subject line of the official format: “Application for the post of Stenographer on adhoc basis”.
- Send it by registered post, or deliver it by hand, so that it reaches The District and Sessions Judge, Nuh before 25 November 2026, 5:00 PM. Applications by email are not accepted, and advance copies are not entertained.
- If you post it, post it several days early. The rule in the notice is receipt, not dispatch — an application that reaches on 26 November is late even if you posted it on the 20th, and an incomplete application is liable to be rejected straightway, without any intimation.
- After applying, keep checking the official website, districts.ecourts.gov.in/mewat — the place of the shorthand test will be informed there, and no separate letter will be issued. Report sharp at 10:00 AM on 30 November 2026 with your original documents, your own shorthand notebook and a pencil.
One application, correct category. Fill the form once and fill it carefully — there is no correction window in an offline process like this, and an unsigned application or one missing its enclosures is liable to be rejected without any intimation to you.
Nuh Court Stenographer Test Pattern and Selection Process 2026
There is no written OMR or CBT examination in this recruitment. Selection is a skill ladder, and every rung tests the actual job:
| Stage | What is tested | Standard |
|---|---|---|
| Shorthand Test | English dictation taken down in shorthand | 80 words per minute |
| Transcription | The same passage typed out on a computer | 20 words per minute |
| Computer Proficiency Test | Working knowledge of computers | As prescribed for the post |
| Document Verification / Medical | Original certificates and fitness | Before engagement |
Stage 1 – Shorthand test and transcription. This is the merit-maker. Your dictation speed and the accuracy of your transcription decide your place in the merit list; a fast hand that produces an error-filled transcript does not help you.
Stage 2 – Computer proficiency test. Candidates who clear the shorthand stage face a computer proficiency test, because the day-to-day transcription and court work in this post is done on a computer.
Stage 3 – Verification and medical. Original documents are checked and a medical examination follows before the engagement order. Selection is made strictly under the Haryana Subordinate Courts Establishment (Recruitment and General Conditions of Service) Rules, 1997.
How this differs from a regular court recruitment. In a regular (non-ad hoc) stenographer recruitment you would expect the same skill tests but a permanent cadre post at the end. Here the tests are identical in spirit — only the tenure is temporary. Candidates preparing documents for other offline Haryana recruitments can compare the format with our SVSU Palwal non-teaching recruitment guide.
Nuh Court Stenographer Salary 2026
Selected candidates get a consolidated pay of Rs 25,500 per month — the initial pay in FPL-4, or at such revised rate as the Government of Haryana prescribes from time to time. Two honest clarifications that short job posts usually skip. First, “consolidated” means this is a fixed monthly amount for the ad hoc engagement; it is not a regular pay-scale appointment with the usual stack of allowances built on top. Second, the engagement is initially for six months or until regular appointments are made by the Punjab and Haryana High Court, whichever is earlier — budget your plans around that tenure, and treat any extension as a fresh order, not a promise. No TA/DA is paid at any stage of this recruitment.
