VARANASI: Tata Memorial Centre opened applications on Friday, November 6, for one Senior Resident position in Onco Pathology, specialising in hematopathology, for its two cancer hospitals in Varanasi. The online deadline is November 24 at 5.30 pm IST. Qualified doctors should check the experience based remuneration, document requirements and separately listed caution deposit before completing the application.

Advertisement VAR/ACA/49/2026 names Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital and Mahamana Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya Cancer Centre. The former is at Old Loco Colony, Shivpurwa, while the latter is at Sundar Bagiya near Nariya Gate in the BHU campus. Both locations are confirmed on the hospitals' official contact page. The advertisement offers one position across the named institutions, not one vacancy at each address.

The appointment is for a fixed period up to July 31, 2027. Further extension depends on the centre's requirements. For applicants, that means the published end date should guide expectations about the tenure; the notice does not promise a permanent appointment or confirm an automatic extension after July.

What applicants should do

Read the complete official advertisement and use the corresponding entry on the Tata Memorial Centre careers page. The hospital's own medical residents listing carries the same advertisement number and dates. Applications must be submitted online, and candidates are specifically told that they need not send a printed application.

The essential qualification is an MD or DNB in Pathology, or an equivalent postgraduate degree recognised by the National Medical Commission. The general conditions also require recognition of undergraduate, postgraduate and super specialty qualifications. Selected candidates appointed to the Varanasi hospitals must be registered with the Uttar Pradesh Medical Council, as applicable.

The maximum age is 45 years, with age and experience calculated as on November 24, 2026. The notice provides age relaxation of five years for SC and ST candidates, three years for OBC candidates and ten years for persons with disabilities, under the applicable rules. Applicants should therefore use the closing date for the calculation, rather than the publication date.

Salary and caution deposit are separate

The salary table has three levels. Senior Resident I carries monthly remuneration of Rs 1,33,623 for the specified Pathology qualification. With one year of experience, the Senior Resident II rate is Rs 1,36,269. With two years of experience, the Senior Resident III rate is Rs 1,40,238. These are experience linked designations within the recruitment, rather than three separately advertised vacancies.

A different table lists a security or caution deposit of Rs 1,33,623, Rs 1,36,269 or Rs 1,40,238 against those respective designations. The figures happen to match the remuneration rates, but they appear under a separate deposit heading. Applicants should read both tables and seek clarification through the official recruitment correspondence channel about any payment arrangements not specified in the advertisement.

  • Advertised position: one Senior Resident in hematopathology.
  • Application deadline: November 24, 2026, at 5.30 pm IST.
  • Tenure stated: up to July 31, 2027.
  • Application fee: Rs 300, with exemptions for specified categories.
  • Application method: online only, without sending a printed form.

The fee can be paid by debit card, credit card or UPI and is not refundable. SC and ST applicants, women, persons with disabilities and eligible former service personnel applying for a civilian post for the first time after service are exempt. The fee exemption and the caution deposit table are separate provisions in the notice.

Documents and selection

Applicants employed by government or government related organisations must obtain a no objection certificate through the head of their institution or department. It must be uploaded with the application, and the original must be produced at the MCQ test or interview. The notice says candidates without that original will not be allowed to appear.

Documentary evidence must support the details entered online, including date of birth, qualifications, experience and applicable category, disability or no objection certificates. Candidates awaiting results may apply where permitted, but must show that they have passed the required degree by the MCQ test or interview. An incomplete application can be rejected.

The centre may hold an MCQ examination before interview for shortlisting. The advertisement does not provide a confirmed examination or interview date, and satisfying the basic eligibility conditions does not guarantee a call. Applicants must monitor their email, including spam folders; the designated correspondence address is resident-acad.mpmmcc@tmc.gov.in. Travel and daily allowances are not payable for attending the selection process.

The centre reserves the right to cancel the post or alter the number of vacancies. It may set minimum benchmarks or category, stream and discipline based cutoffs for interview shortlisting and final selection.
