In a significant development for Uttar Pradesh civil services aspirants, the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) has officially released the UPPSC PCS 2024 cutoff marks along with the subject-wise Main Examination scores, interview scores, and total marks for all candidates who appeared in the Combined State/Upper Subordinate Services (PCS) Examination 2024. The marks and category-wise cutoff data were activated on the official portal on June 10, 2026, and will remain accessible until June 15, 2026. Candidates have a short five-day window to download and verify their detailed scorecards before the link is deactivated.
About the UPPSC PCS 2024 Examination Cycle
The UPPSC PCS 2024 recruitment cycle was one of the most closely followed state civil services examinations in recent memory. The journey began with the Preliminary Examination held on December 22, 2024, followed by the Main Examination conducted from March 29 to April 1, 2026 — a rigorous multi-day written test. Candidates who qualified the Mains were subsequently called for the Personality Test (Interview), completing the three-stage selection process.
The UPPSC PCS Mains result 2024 was declared on February 4, 2026, with 2,719 candidates qualifying for the interview stage. In compliance with directions from the Allahabad High Court, two additional candidates were also provisionally permitted to appear for the interview following a notification issued on March 20, 2026. The final result for the UPPSC PCS 2024 cycle was declared on March 29, 2026, with a total of 932 candidates shortlisted out of the 947 vacancies on offer across 24 categories. In a notable achievement, 6 women secured positions in the top 10 ranks of the examination.
Toppers of UPPSC PCS 2024
According to the official UPPSC press release, Neha Panchal topped the UPPSC PCS 2024 examination, while Ananya Trivedi secured second position and Abhay Pratap Singh finished third for the deputy collector post — a result that garnered widespread attention and celebration across the state.
UPPSC PCS 2024 Cutoff: Key Details
The UPPSC PCS 2024 cutoff has now been officially released on the portal alongside the detailed marks. The cutoff is declared category-wise and post-wise, determining the minimum aggregate marks a candidate must have secured in the Mains Examination and Interview combined to be considered for final selection. The final merit is calculated out of a total of 1,600 marks — comprising 1,500 marks from the Mains examination and 100 marks from the interview.
Category-wise cutoffs typically follow this pattern based on historical trends:
- General / EWS: Highest cutoff bracket
- OBC: Slightly lower than General
- SC: Moderately lower
- ST: Lowest among all categories
Candidates are advised to download the official UPPSC PCS 2024 cutoff PDF from the portal directly and compare their individual scores to assess their final standing.
Important Note for PROV-Marked Candidates
Selected candidates whose names appear with the marking ‘PROV’ (Provisional) in the final result list must take immediate action. UPPSC has clearly stated that provisional candidates are required to submit the requisite original documents — including caste certificates, educational qualifications, domicile certificates, and other supporting documents — by the stipulated deadline. Failure to do so will result in automatic cancellation of candidature and selection.

What Comes Next for UPPSC Aspirants?
For candidates who did not make the final merit list in the 2024 cycle, the release of the UPPSC PCS 2024 cutoff serves as a crucial benchmark for calibrating preparation for the next cycle. The UPPSC PCS 2025 cycle is already underway — the Prelims were held on October 12, 2025, with over 6.26 lakh candidates appearing for approximately 200 vacancies, and the Mains ran from March 29 to April 1, 2026. The UPPSC PCS 2025 cutoff and results are expected to be declared in the coming months.
For those preparing for future attempts, experts recommend targeting 950+ marks for General category aspirants aiming for premier posts such as SDM or DSP, with a personal preparation buffer of at least 30–50 marks above the expected cutoff to remain competitive in one of India’s most coveted state civil service examinations.
