The Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC) has released its Exam Calendar for 2026, laying out dates for major competitive and recruitment examinations conducted by the commission.

The calendar gives candidates a complete view of the year’s schedule well in advance, allowing them to plan their preparation wisely.

The official schedule is available on the RPSC website, and includes dates for more than a dozen selection tests across various government departments in Rajasthan. 

Why the RPSC Exam Calendar Matters

The RPSC exam calendar is important because it:

• Helps aspirants plan long-term study schedules.
• Provides clarity on when major exams will take place.
• Includes online and computer-based tests, improving fairness and transparency.
• Includes reserve dates that can be used if new exams are added or schedules change.

RPSC has also adopted a One-Time Registration (OTR) system for candidates, reducing repetitive form-filling and securing candidate data.

Return of Online Exams

After a gap of several years, the calendar includes computer-based and online exams, starting with the Lecturer (Ayurveda) and Assistant Electrical Inspector tests in January and February. This shift aims to enhance transparency, fairness, and efficiency. 

Balanced Schedule

RPSC has spaced exams throughout the year—from January to December—with breaks between tests so candidates preparing for multiple exams can revise without rush. 

Reserve Dates Provided

Several reserve dates are included to accommodate future recruitments or unexpected delays, reducing stress for candidates and avoid long waits if an exam needs rescheduling.
