Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) has changed the reporting time for the LIC AAO Mains 2025 exam, Shift 1. Candidates appearing for the exam on November 8, 2025 , must now report to their exam centres by 7:00 AM . This change is made to ensure that all necessary verification steps, especially Aadhaar authentication, are completed smoothly and on time.
The LIC AAO exam is for the post of Assistant Administrative Officer in LIC, one of India's largest insurance companies. This job is a popular choice for many students seeking a secure government sector career. The Mains exam is a crucial step for candidates who have cleared the preliminary stage.
Why the Reporting Time Changed
The earlier reporting schedule has been updated to give enough time for important checks before the exam starts. These checks are essential to confirm each candidate's identity and ensure fairness during the exam. The steps include:
- Aadhaar Verification: Confirming the candidate's identity using their Aadhaar card.
- Biometric and Photograph Capture: Taking fingerprints and a new photo of the candidate at the exam center.
- Document Collection: Checking and collecting required documents like the admit card and other identity proofs.
- Instruction Announcement: Providing all important rules and guidelines for the exam.
- Login Formalities: Helping candidates log in to their computers for the online exam.
By reporting early at 7:00 AM , candidates will have sufficient time to complete these procedures without rushing or facing delays, making the process smoother for everyone.

Important Instructions for Candidates
Candidates must follow these instructions carefully to avoid any issues on the exam day:
- Revised Reporting Time: All candidates must reach their exam centre by 7:00 AM for Shift 1. Arriving late might lead to missing important verification steps and possibly being denied entry.
- Mandatory Aadhaar Card: It is compulsory to carry your original Aadhaar Card to the exam centre. This card is needed for biometric authentication and identity verification. Without it, you may not be allowed to enter.
- Biometric Unlock: If you have locked your biometrics in your Aadhaar, you must unlock them before the exam day. Locked biometrics will prevent the verification process at the exam centre, causing delays or problems. You can usually unlock your biometrics through the UIDAI website or by visiting an Aadhaar Seva Kendra.
- Candidates should also carry their Admit Card and another valid photo ID proof, as mentioned in their exam instructions.
Following these updated timings and requirements will help candidates have a hassle-free experience on the LIC AAO Mains 2025 exam day.
