The recruitment covers 117 Senior Personal Assistant posts at Pay Level-8, Rs 44,900 to Rs 1,42,400 a month. You download the admit card with your User ID and Password from the login link printed in the Court's notice.

Delhi High Court SPA Admit Card 2026 at a glance

The link went live on 11 November

The Court put up the city slip first and the admit card second. The notice dated 6 November 2026 says the downloading link for the city intimation slip was activated on 6 November 2026, and the downloading link for the admit card was activated on 11 November 2026. If you checked the site before the 11th and found no admit card link, that was the schedule working as printed, not a problem with your application.

Download it from the official site, not from a forwarded link in a chat group. Open delhihighcourt.nic.in, go to Public Notice, then Recruitment, then Job Openings, and find the notice titled City Intimation Slip / Admit Card of Stage-I: English Typing Test in connection with Senior Personal Assistant (Open) Examination 2026. The notice prints the admit card login link. Enter your User ID and Password there and the card appears on screen.

Print it on A4 the same day you download it. The notice says your reporting time, examination time, centre and instructions are all on the admit card, so the card is the only place that tells you exactly where and when to report. Do not leave the printout for Friday night. A faded or half printed copy can cost you entry, and nobody at the gate can reprint it for you.

If you have forgotten the password, the login page has a Forgot Password option. The portal also asks candidates to change their password every 90 days, otherwise it expires, so if your login fails, that is the first thing to check before assuming something is wrong with your application.

What the typing test asks for

Stage-I is a qualifying English typing test on a computer. It runs for 10 minutes and needs a minimum speed of 40 words per minute, with mistakes allowed up to 3 percent of the total words typed. The Court counts speed on the characters typed, including spaces.

The marks from this stage add nothing to the final merit. That sounds like good news, and it is, but only up to a point. You still have to clear it to reach the shorthand test, so a candidate who types fast and carelessly can still go out here. At 40 words a minute for 10 minutes, you need about 400 accurate words. Practise on a standard keyboard and put accuracy first, because mistakes above the 3 percent limit can disqualify you even if your speed is high.

Three more stages follow

Clearing the typing test only opens the next door. Stage-II is an English shorthand test, a 550 word passage dictated in 5 minutes at 110 words per minute for SPA. Stage-III is the main descriptive exam of 100 marks: essay 40, letter writing 15, grammar and comprehension 25, translation 20. Stage-IV is an interview of 15 marks.

The Court prepares the final merit list from the combined marks of Stages II, III and IV. Stage-I counts for nothing in that total, which is why the typing test is best treated as a gate to pass cleanly rather than a score to chase.

Do not mix this up with the PA test

The same exam cycle also covers 33 Personal Assistant posts, and the two tests run on different dates. The SPA typing test is on 14 November 2026. The PA typing test is on 27 November 2026, and the PA admit card comes out on 24 November 2026. If you applied for PA, the link that went live on 11 November is not yours, and checking it will only confuse you. Wait for the 24 November link instead.

The vacancy split for SPA is 43 General, 14 EWS, 32 OBC (NCL), 16 SC and 12 ST, which adds up to the 117 total. Applications for this examination ran from 15 September to 5 October 2026, with a correction window from 12 to 14 October 2026.

The same post at the top court runs on a similar pattern. The Supreme Court Senior Personal Assistant Recruitment 2026 post on this site covers that drive, and it is worth a read if you are tracking SPA openings across courts.

Check these two things the moment it downloads

First, the centre, the date and the reporting time printed on the card. Delhi-NCR covers a wide area, and your centre could be well away from where you live, so plan the travel now rather than on Saturday morning. Reach the centre before the reporting time printed on the card. Late arrivals are not allowed in.

Second, the instructions printed on the card itself. Carry the printed admit card and an original valid photo ID such as Aadhaar, voter ID, PAN, passport or driving licence. Leave mobile phones, smartwatches, calculators and other electronic devices at home. The Court does not allow them inside. Follow the instructions given by the invigilators at the typing lab.

Saturday is a busy admit card day in Delhi. The DSSSB Skill Test Admit Card 2026 post on this site covers the Junior Assistant and Stenographer skill tests that are also on 14 November 2026, at NSUT East Campus in Delhi.
