Thrissur teacher Sujatha — first month in government job — needed salary slip for bank loan. Didn’t know her PEN number. Went to DDO — got PEN — registered on spark.gov.in — downloaded first salary slip in 10 minutes. Loan application done.
SPARK (Service and Payroll Administrative Repository for Kerala) — Kerala Government’s integrated HRMS portal for all state government employees. Launched by Kerala Finance Department. 5 lakh+ employees — teachers, police, health workers, panchayat staff — payslip, service records, leave management, all online.
Official Portal: 👉 spark.gov.in
💡 ദ്രുത ഉത്തരം (Quick Answer): Login: spark.gov.in → PEN Number + Password Salary Slip: Login → Accounts → View Salary Slip → Month/Year → Proceed KSRTC employees: G-SPARK = gspark.kerala.gov.in (NOT SPARK) Mobile App: Google Play → “SPARK OnMobile” Helpline: 0471-2579700 (SPARK PMU Trivandrum)
⚠️ 3 Portals — Which One Is Yours?
Most common confusion:

| SPARK | Regular Kerala Govt employees — teachers, police, health, panchayat | spark.gov.in |
| G-SPARK | KSRTC employees + Aided institution staff + PSU | gspark.kerala.gov.in |
| SPARK OnMobile | Mobile access for SPARK users | Google Play |
KSRTC employees = G-SPARK = gspark.kerala.gov.in Regular govt employees = SPARK = spark.gov.in Wrong portal = “employee not found” error

⭐ PEN Number — Kaise Milega?
First time users — most searched:
PEN (Permanent Employee Number) = SPARK ka User ID। Every Kerala govt employee ko unique PEN milta hai।
PEN kahan se milega:
Step 1: Apne DDO (Drawing and Disbursing Officer) se milein — office head ya accounts officer

PEN nahi pata — already employee hain: spark.gov.in → Login page → “PEN Enquiry” option → Name + Department + DOB → PEN milega
First Time Registration
Step 1: spark.gov.in → “Not Registered? Register Now”
Step 2: Details fill karein:

- Date of Birth
- Aadhaar Number
- Mobile Number
- Email ID
Step 3: Password set karein (8-15 characters)
Step 4: OTP verify → Registration complete
⚠️ Name = Service book mein exactly same spelling — mismatch = registration fail
Forgot Password — Reset

Mobile number update karna hai? DDO se contact karein — employee update karta hai DDO।

2026 Update — Kerala HC Privacy Ruling
Kerala High Court 2026: SPARK data = employee privacy protected। Unauthorized data access = strict action। Don’t share PEN + password with anyone — not even colleagues। Unit IT cell = report unauthorized access।
Common Problems + Fix
“Employee not found” error: Wrong portal? KSRTC/PSU = G-SPARK। Regular employees = spark.gov.in। Name spelling = service book se exact hona chahiye।
“PEN not working as login”: PEN = correct format enter karo। DDO se PEN confirm karo।
“Salary slip not showing”: Accounts → View Salary Slip → Correct month/year। DDO ne SPARK mein data update kiya?
“OTP not received for password reset”: Mobile number DDO ke paas update hai? DDO se mobile number update karwao।
