TNPDCL Recruitment 2026 - Apply now

Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Corporation Limited (TNPDCL) is engaging 2 Company Secretary posts for TANTRANSCO, the state's transmission company, on contract: 1 Company Secretary and 1 Company Secretary (Trainee). Applications must reach the Chief Engineer/Personnel at TNPDCL on or before 30 October 2026. The contract is for one year, extendable by two years, on consolidated wages.

Who Should Apply

• Company Secretary (1 post) — a recognised degree, qualified Company Secretary with valid ICSI membership, and 3 years of experience as a designated Company Secretary. A listed company background is preferred.
• Company Secretary (Trainee) (1 post) — a recognised degree and a pass in the ICSI Intermediate (Executive) level. No experience is needed, so this is the entry-level post.

Eligibility & Age Limit

Qualifications are listed above. For the Company Secretary post, the experience should also cover board matters and dealing with SEBI and stock exchanges. [check] That last detail comes from TNPDCL's earlier Company Secretary notice. Check this round's notification.

Age: reports of this round give 30 years for Company Secretary and 22 years for the Trainee, as on 1 July 2026. TNPDCL's earlier notices gave the same figures as minimum ages, while some job sites call them age limits. [check] Check in the notification whether 30 and 22 are minimum or maximum ages. No age relaxation figures are given in what I found.

Salary & Pay Scale

The pay is consolidated wages on a contract. This round's amounts were not in the sources I could read. TNPDCL's earlier notice gave ₹1,00,000 per month for Company Secretary and ₹20,000 per month for the Intermediate-passed post. [check] Do not rely on those figures for this round. Check the notification.

Important Dates

The notice appears on the TNPDCL website home page. The application must reach the office by the last date, not just be posted.

Application Fee

No application fee was stated in what I found for this round. One site reported a fee of ₹500 (General/OBC) and ₹250 (SC/ST/PwBD/Female) for a TNPDCL Company Secretary notice in March 2026, but I could not confirm it for this round. [check] Check the notification.

How to Apply

This is an offline application.

1. Open the TNPDCL website, https://www.tnpdcl.org/en/tnpdcl/, and find the notice "Engagement of Company Secretary and Company Secretary (Trainee) for TANTRANSCO on Contract Basis".
2. Download the notification and the application form, and read them fully.
3. Fill in the form and attach your certificates.
4. Send it so that it reaches the Chief Engineer/Personnel, TNPDCL office on or before 30 October 2026. Keep the postal acknowledgement.

[check] I found the office address only in earlier TNPDCL notices: NPKRR Maligai, 144 Anna Salai, Chennai – 600 002. Use the address printed in this round's notification.

How Are Candidates Selected

The sources do not state the selection process for this round. Earlier TNPDCL Company Secretary notices were reported to involve a written exam, an interview and document verification, but this is not confirmed. [check] Check the notification.

Why This Job Matters

TNPDCL is the Tamil Nadu government's power distribution company, and TANTRANSCO is its transmission company. A Company Secretary handles board meetings, filings and corporate law compliance. TNPDCL also posts Company Secretary vacancies several times a year, and this round adds a trainee post.

The FreshersLike Take

Best fit: A qualified Company Secretary (ACS/FCS) with 3 years of experience, or a student who has passed the ICSI Intermediate (Executive) level and wants a trainee role at a state power utility in Chennai.

Who should think twice: There is only 1 seat in each post, both are contract roles with consolidated wages, and the Company Secretary post is closed to freshers.

Practical tip: The notice says the application must reach the office by 30 October 2026, so send it by speed post or courier with tracking at least three or four days before, and keep the acknowledgement.

Documents Required

The sources do not list documents. [check] Confirm in the notification. Expect to need:

• Degree certificate and mark sheets
• ICSI membership certificate (Company Secretary) or ICSI Intermediate (Executive) pass certificate (Trainee)
• Experience certificates showing 3 years as a designated Company Secretary (Company Secretary post)
• Proof of date of birth
• Any other enclosures listed in the notification

What Happens After Selection

The contract is one year, extendable by two years, on consolidated wages. [check] Joining details and any renewal terms are not given in what I found.

Contact & Helpline

No phone number or email was found for this notice. Applications go to the Chief Engineer/Personnel, TNPDCL. This is the only official channel named; TNPDCL will not contact candidates through any other number for payment or personal details.
