A total of 1,270 posts of Clerk are to be filled. The notification states that the number of vacancies may be increased or decreased without notice, depending on the number of vacancies as on the date of preparation of the merit list and posting; the number of candidates to be recommended will be decided by the Hon'ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana.

Important note on this table: Per the notification, reservation for Sportsman, Persons with Benchmark Disabilities (PwBD), and Ex-Servicemen of Punjab operates as horizontal reservation - meaning these candidates are drawn from within the vertical categories (UR/EWS/SC/BC) rather than being counted as fully separate, additional vacancies. Given the complexity of this nested roster and some ambiguity in a few cells when extracting the original table, candidates should treat the figures above as indicative and verify the exact, authoritative category-wise and sub-category-wise vacancy numbers directly from the official notification PDF on sssc.gov.in before applying.

Category abbreviations used for Persons with Benchmark Disabilities (PwBD): LV = Low Vision, HH = Hard of Hearing, OA = One Arm, OL = One Leg, BA = Both Arms, BL = Both Legs, OAL = One Arm and One Leg, LC = Leprosy Cured, Dw = Dwarfism, AAV = Acid Attack Victims, SLD = Specific Learning Disability, MI = Mental Illness, MD = Multiple Disabilities, SD/SI = Spinal Deformity/Spinal Injury.
