Both posts attract NPS (National Pension System) deduction (~10%) and income tax as applicable. The in-hand salary after NPS deduction (~10%) and tax would approximate ₹58,000–₹62,000/month depending on your tax slab and deductions.

How to Apply Application Mode: OFFLINE / WALK-IN Visit the official ESIC website at https://esic.gov.in and locate the notification for ESIC Medical College & Hospital, Bihta recruitment of Senior Resident and Super Specialist Senior Resident posts. Read the complete notification carefully to identify the walk-in date, time, and venue at ESIC Medical College & Hospital, Bihta, Patna. Prepare two sets of all required documents: originals and attested copies (see Documents Required section below). Obtain your MD/MS/DNB certificate and supporting degree marksheets from your university; these must be attested by a gazetted officer or your university if not yet officially issued. Get a recent colour passport-size photograph (white background, 35mm × 45mm) printed in multiple copies and a scanned digital version using an image resizer if the notification requires online pre-registration or portal submission. On the walk-in date, arrive at least 30 minutes early with all originals and attested copies, a valid photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, or Passport), and a pen for filling forms on-site. Submit your application directly at the designated counter, collect an acknowledgement or receipt, and note the application/registration number for future reference. Common Mistakes That Get Applications Rejected Incomplete or expired postgraduate degree certificate: ESIC requires valid MD/MS/DNB certificates; if your degree was awarded more than 5–10 years ago, ensure the certificate is still recognised and not de-listed. Bring originals and attested copies. Missing attestation on documents: Photocopies of your degree, marksheets, and caste/domicile certificates (if applicable) must be attested by a gazetted officer or your university registrar. Unattested documents are rejected on the spot. Incorrect application fee payment: General category candidates must pay ₹500; SC/ST candidates are exempt. If you pay the wrong amount or fail to bring proof of payment for walk-in, your form may not be accepted. Carry a fee receipt if applicable. Undated or unsigned application form: Sign and date the walk-in form in the exact fields specified. Unsigned or partially filled forms are not accepted. Photograph or ID mismatch: Ensure your passport-size photograph is recent (taken within 6 months) and matches your face clearly. Bring your original ID proof to verify identity; mismatches can lead to rejection. Incorrect specialisation or post choice: Carefully choose your specialisation and whether you are applying for Senior Resident or Super Specialist Senior Resident. Cross-corrections on forms are not permitted; submit a fresh form if needed. Selection Process The official notification does not specify the selection process stages in detail.
