The Indian Coast Guard has recently announced the recruitment of an Assistant Commandant, a Group ‘A’ Gazetted Officer position. It is a matter of prestige to be selected for the armed forces. It is not easy to get through all of the stages of selection. As a result, candidates must thoroughly prepare for the Indian Coast Guard Assistant Commandant Recruitment. 

Understanding the syllabus is the basic requirement for preparation. This article will cover the most recent and detailed Indian Coast Guard Assistant Commandant Syllabus. As of now, the Indian Coast Guard has not released any information about the Indian Coastguard syllabus. We have also covered the ICGCAT syllabus for technical branches, ICGCAT Mechanical Syllabus, ICGCAT Electrical/Electronics syllabus.

Indian Coast Guard (ICG) Assistant Commandant (AC) 2022 Syllabus

Indian Coast Guard Assistant Commandant recruitment will go through these 5 stages for the selection process.

  • Stage I (includes Screening Test): 
  • Stage II (includes PSB): 
  • Stage III (includes Final Selection Board (FSB)): 
  • Stage IV: Medical Examination 
  • Stage V: All India Merit List

For the post of General Duty GD/Pilot/Navigator/Women SSA in Indian Coast Guard, The Indian Coast Guard will conduct these 5 stages of exam and in these 5 stages of examination only Stage I will have a specific written examination that Indian Coast Guard has named as Screening Test which is based on Mental Ability. The Mental Ability Test will be a type of aptitude test with objective questions. This test is expected to include questions from subjects such as Quantitative Aptitude and Logical Reasoning.
