SSC GD Result 2026: Merit List and Expected Cut-Off
The SSC GD Result 2026 will be published in PDF format and will contain the roll numbers of candidates shortlisted for the next stage of the recruitment process. Candidates will be able to download the merit list directly from the official SSC website without requiring login credentials.
Alongside the result, the Commission is expected to publish the category-wise cut-off marks for various states and recruitment categories. These cut-off marks will determine eligibility for the PET/PST round and will vary depending on factors such as:
- Number of vacancies
- Overall difficulty level of the examination
- Number of candidates who appeared
- Category-wise reservation norms
Candidates whose roll numbers appear in the merit list will become eligible to participate in the physical tests conducted by the respective recruitment authorities.
PET/PST Process After SSC GD Result 2026
Following the declaration of the SSC GD Result shortlisted candidates will be invited to appear for the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST). These stages are qualifying in nature and are mandatory for final selection.
The PET generally evaluates a candidate’s physical fitness through prescribed running events, while the PST verifies physical measurements such as height and chest (where applicable) according to SSC recruitment norms. Candidates who successfully qualify in both stages will subsequently undergo document verification and medical examination before the final selection list is prepared.
Applicants are advised to begin their physical preparation in advance so that they are fully prepared once the PET/PST schedule is announced.
