RSMSSB TRA Syllabus, Exam Pattern, Eligibility

A single stage: two objective papers, no interview. Each right answer earns 3 marks and each wrong answer loses 1.

Maths and computers are set at Senior Secondary level and Paper II at graduation level, except the two rules sections. To qualify you need 35% in each paper and 40% overall, 5% less for SC and ST.

Paper I: Hindi and English grammar and usage; Rajasthan's history, art, culture, literature, geography, polity and administration, economy and current events; science (chemistry in daily life, electricity and light, environment, agriculture-related sciences, human health); arithmetic and data; and computers (Windows, Word, Excel for accounting, internet and e-banking).

Paper II: accounting concepts, final accounts, bank reconciliation, depreciation, partnership; forms of business, negotiable instruments, business finance and management basics; auditing, vouching and internal control; Indian economy, planning, agriculture, inflation and the Rajasthan economy; RSR Volume I chapters II, III, X, XI, XIII, XIV, XV and XVI; GF&AR Part I chapters I to VI, XIV and XVII.

• A graduate degree from a recognised university, or the intermediate exam of ICAI (chartered accountants) or of the Institute of Cost Accountants, and
• a computer qualification: O level or higher, COPA/DPCS, a computer degree or diploma, a polytechnic diploma in computer science, electronics or IT, or RS-CIT, and
• working knowledge of Hindi in Devanagari and of Rajasthani culture.

Age: 21 to 40, with 3 extra years in 2023 because the post had not been recruited for three years. Reserved men of Rajasthan get 5 more years, general women 5, reserved women of Rajasthan 10, benchmark disability 5 extra; widows and divorcees have no upper limit.

You also need a CET (Graduation level) score. In 2023 about 15 times the posts in each category were called to the main exam on CET marks; the general cut-off for that call was 154.4838.

1. CET (Graduation level) qualified candidates apply.
2. About 15 times the posts are shortlisted on CET score.
3. Main exam (two papers, 900 marks).
4. Roughly twice the posts are called for documents; in 2023 that was 10,519 candidates for both posts, checked by the Directorate of Treasuries and Accounts.
5. Final list, split between Junior Accountant and TRA by merit and preference. TRA selectees go to the Registrar, Board of Revenue, Ajmer, for appointment.

Pay Matrix Level 10. As with every Rajasthan direct recruit, the first two years are probation on a fixed monthly remuneration without HRA or DA.

Later supplementary orders came through 2025. The next cycle, when it comes, will be on the RSSB Advertisements page.

Final cut-offs for TRA, 2023 cycle, out of 900:

Scheduled area: general 578.7088, SC 503.0601, ST 398.3555. For comparison, the Junior Accountant general line was 605.9146, so TRA took a much higher score for far fewer posts.

The December 2024 result was declared subject to writ petition 12726/2024 and connected cases in the Rajasthan High Court, Jaipur.
