UPSC Exams 2022: OTR platform launched for submission of applications on upsconline.in; Steps to apply online

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has launched the One Time Registration (OTR) platform for UPSC Exams 2022. The One Time Registration, OTR has been launched for the submission of applications for various exams on upsc.gov.in. For more details, candidates are suggested to visit the UPSC portal -- upsconline.nic.in. 

OTR will save time from filling in their basic personal details again for any subsequent examination being conducted by the UPSC. It will also eliminate any possibility of submission of incorrect information as their basic personal details will be validated by the candidates themselves.
“Since about 70% information of an aspirant in the OTR will automatically be pre-populated in the online application form of an Examination, the time for filling/submitting an online application form will be reduced considerably,” UPSC said.

The candidates, who wish to apply for any future Examination(s) of UPSC, are required to register themselves in the OTR platform by filling up their basic personal information indicated therein.
