A criminal case has been opened for the "Premeditated murder of two or more people" under Azerbaijani Criminal Code Article 120.2.7, the Defence Ministry press service reported.
Investigators from the Defence Ministry and Military Prosecutor's Office are at the scene.
The incident took place at 09.40 (05.40 GMT) on Sunday, the ministry said, but did not disclose the location.
Unconfirmed reports say that a soldier went on the rampage in a unit in Goy Gol District in western Azerbaijan.
The Defence Ministry has named the dead, who were all young conscripts from different parts of the country, as Naib Fakhraddin oglu Guliyev (born in 1992 and called up from Beylagan in April 2010), Javid Vakil oglu Javadzada (born in 1991, called up from Mingachavir in January 2010), Nurlan Radfel oglu Suanverdiyev (born in 1991, called up from Agdam in April 2010), Ramazan Abdulla oglu Khojberov (born in 1992, called up from Balakan in April 2010), Afgan Yashar oglu Karimov (born in 1991, called up from Balakan in October 2009), Ahmad Ahmadali oglu Huseynov (born in 1992, called up from Agjabadi in January 2010) and Zakir Etibar oglu Guliyev (born in 1991, called up from Baku's Yasamal in January 2010).
The last report of multiple killings in the Azerbaijani army came in January 2010 when four officers were killed by two soldiers at a military unit in Dashkasan District.
An Azerbaijani soldier was killed recently by a fellow conscript at a unit in Nakhchivan. The Defence Ministry said on 3 February that the death was the result of careless handling of a weapon.
