About Kerala PSC LDC

Kerala PSC recruits Lower Division Clerks (also notified as Clerk) for government departments, companies, boards and the Kerala Water Authority through objective OMR examinations. Recruitments are run per category number; in the 2021-2023 cycles LDC candidates first cleared a common preliminary examination and then an SSLC, plus-two or degree level main examination, while other recruitments use a single OMR test. The detailed syllabus for categories 503/2023 and 504/2023 sets a 100-mark paper.
