CGEWHO Recruitment 2026: Accountant Post for B.Com (Hons) Candidates – Apply Offline Before 30 November

The Central Government Employees Welfare Housing Organisation (CGEWHO) has invited applications for the post of Accountant on a direct recruitment basis. There is only one vacancy, and it is reserved for OBC candidates. The post carries the central pay scale of Level-4 (Rs. 25,500 – Rs. 81,100) and is based at the organisation’s head office in New Delhi.

This is a small notice with a very specific profile: you need a B.Com (Hons.) degree and 5 years of experience in accounts work — maintaining accounts, balance sheets and taxation. There is no application fee mentioned in the official advertisement, and applications are accepted offline only. Your completed form must reach the CGEWHO office by 30 November 2026.

One warning before anything else: CGEWHO had advertised this same post earlier this year, and that advertisement has been cancelled. If you applied last time, your application will not be considered — you must apply again under this fresh notice. Details are given in a separate section below.

First, Read This: The Earlier Advertisement Has Been Cancelled

CGEWHO first published this Accountant vacancy on 26 May 2026. The new advertisement clearly states that the earlier advertisement stands cancelled.

This matters in three ways:

• If you applied in May–July 2026, that application is dead. You have to submit a fresh application under the new notice.
• Do not rely on any detail from the old round — old last dates, old eligibility notes and old portal articles circulating on the internet are no longer valid.
• The application form hosted on the official website is the one linked with this notice. Download it fresh from cgewho.in instead of reusing a printout saved from the previous round.

Vacancy Details and Eligibility

Post	Vacancies	Category	Qualification	Experience	Age Limit
Accountant	01	OBC	B.Com (Hons.)	5 years (maintaining accounts, balance sheet & taxation etc.)	35 years

The B.Com (Hons.) condition — read it carefully

The advertisement asks for B.Com (Hons.) specifically, not just any commerce degree. If your degree is B.Com (Pass/Programme), the notice as written does not cover you. Rather than assuming, confirm your position with CGEWHO (phone numbers are given below) before spending time on the application — with a single vacancy, ineligible applications are rejected at the screening stage itself.

The 5-year experience condition

The 5 years of experience must be in maintaining accounts, balance sheet and taxation work. A few practical points:

• General office or data-entry work will not match this requirement — the experience should be in actual accounts handling.
• Your experience certificate should clearly mention the nature of work (accounts maintenance, balance-sheet preparation, tax-related work) and the exact period.
• Preference will be given to candidates having experience in construction/real estate-related work, since CGEWHO’s entire work revolves around housing projects. If your accounts experience is with a builder, construction company or housing organisation, highlight it prominently in the form.

OBC reservation

The single post is reserved for OBC. Candidates claiming the post must belong to the OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) category and should attach a valid OBC certificate with the application. General category candidates cannot apply against this reserved vacancy.

Salary

The post is placed in Pay Level-4 of the 7th CPC pay matrix, Rs. 25,500 – Rs. 81,100. This means the starting basic pay is Rs. 25,500 per month, and allowances such as DA, HRA and transport allowance are paid extra as per the organisation’s rules — so the actual monthly salary in Delhi will be noticeably higher than the basic figure. Being a direct-recruitment post in a Government of India autonomous body, it is a regular appointment, not a contract engagement.

Age Limit

The maximum age limit given in the advertisement is 35 years. The short official notice does not separately mention a cut-off date for reckoning age or any relaxation — check the instructions printed with the official application form, and if you are close to the limit, confirm with CGEWHO on the phone numbers given below before applying.

Selection Process

The official advertisement is a short one-page notice and it does not announce any written examination. For a single specialist post like this, applications are screened on qualification and experience, and the organisation takes the process forward with the eligible candidates. Whatever stage follows — test or interview — will be communicated by CGEWHO to the candidates concerned. Do not trust any website that publishes an “exam date” or “selection stages” list for this post; no such thing has been announced in the official notice as of now.

FAQs

Q1. I applied for this Accountant post when it was advertised in May 2026. Is my old application still valid?
No. The new advertisement of October 2026 clearly states that the earlier advertisement (published on 26/05/2026) stands cancelled. You must submit a fresh application under the new notice before 30 November 2026.

Q2. I have B.Com (Pass), not B.Com (Hons.). Can I apply?
The advertisement specifically requires B.Com (Hons.). A B.Com (Pass/Programme) degree does not match the notice as written. If you believe your qualification is equivalent, confirm with CGEWHO on 011-23717249 before applying.

Q3. Can General category candidates apply for this post?
No. The single vacancy is reserved for OBC candidates. Only OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) candidates with a valid certificate should apply.

Q4. Is there any application fee?
The official advertisement does not prescribe any application fee for this post.

Q5. Is this a permanent job or a contract job?
This is a regular post filled through direct recruitment in a Government of India autonomous body, with the Level-4 pay scale. It is not a contractual engagement.

Q6. My experience is in accounts, but in a construction company. Does it count?
Yes — and it actually works in your favour. CGEWHO has stated that preference will be given to candidates with experience in construction/real estate-related work. Make sure your experience certificate clearly describes your accounts, balance-sheet and taxation duties.
