Though the Higher Weightage is given to Computer (30 Marks) and Accounting Subjects (30 Marks), While Economics (10 Marks) and Statistics (10 Marks) has comparatively Lower Weightage.

JKSSB Accounts Assistant Syllabus 2020 Announced

How this Syllabus is Different from Previous Syllabus?

In 2016, when JKSSB conducted the Accounts Assistant Exam, a Common Syllabus for all Graduate Level Posts was prescribed, but this is not the case in 2019 as these Posts are exclusively for Panchayati Raj Department. 

So a change in the Syllabus was expected.

Moreover, Eligibility criteria for Accounts Assistants was also changed. In previous years Notifications, A Simple Graduate is eligible to apply for Account Assistant. But from now onwards, Only those who have a Degree in Management, Computers, Commerce and those having studied Maths, Economics and Statistics as Subjects in Degree can apply. For more details on Eligibility criteria, you can read our previous post on Who can apply for JKSSB Panchayat Accounts Assistant Exam 2019 ?

As the Qualification is changed, So is the Syllabus and Latest Syllabus has New Sections Like 

i) Accountancy and Book-Keeping (30 Marks)
ii) General Economics (10 Marks)
iii) Mathematics and Statistics (10 Marks)

Other Sections of the Syllabus are 

i) J&K General Knowledge (30 Marks)
ii) Computer Applications (30 Marks)
iii) General Science (Bio, Chemistry, Physics) : 10 Marks

First Look at the Syllabus suggests, it is more compatible to Commerce Students  as 50% of the Syllabus is Subject Specific and carved out from the Commerce Subjects, While the rest of the Syllabus is General Like J&K GK, Science and Computer, which you often find in Other JKSSB Exams 

What is Changed in the Syllabus?

As we have mentioned above, Changes in the Syllabus are very minor, But the major change is made in the Eligibility criteria for this post. Earlier the Qualification for Accounts Assistant Posts : B Com/M com,BBA/MBA, BCA/MCA or any other Degree with Maths, Economics and stats as one of the Subjects.

Now the Revised Criteria is "Degree in any discipline with 50% Marks"

As far as Changes in Syllabus is concerned. Only One Topic in J&K GK Section is Changed.

"J&K Constitution Topic is replaced with the India Constitution"

And this seems to be a Good Decision as Post Article 370 abrogation, "Constitution of J&K" does not exist. So asking questions on this topic is not wise enough.

So, that's a good decision. The Detailed JKSSB Accounts Assistant Syllabus is given below.

When the Accounts Assistant Posts will be Announced?

Short Answer: May, 2020

This is the one question, that every Accounts Assistant Aspirant wants to Know. As the Syllabus is announced, this means Notification can be announced any time.

Even JKSSB has clearly mentioned that Posts are already received by the JKSSB and now it is a matter of time when these posts will be announced. As the Domicile and Reservation Rules are announced, so there is every possibility that posts will be announced soon. We are expecting that JKSSB will announce the Panchayat Accounts Assistant Recruitment in May, 2020.

So gear up for the Upcoming Accounts Assistant Jobs and JKSSB Recruitment 2020 for 50,000 Jobs
