Selection for these posts is based strictly on Class 10 merit, with cut-offs for the General category reaching as high as 100% and for the OBC category at a minimum of 97%. This reflects the competitive nature of the recruitment process, which does not include a written examination; selection is purely merit-based.
The merit list includes registration numbers and selected categories of candidates, allowing individuals to verify their status. Candidates can easily search for their names using the ‘Ctrl+F’ function in the PDF document.
Document verification (DV) is scheduled to be completed by March 23, 2026, and it is essential for shortlisted candidates to attend this phase at their assigned postal division. The provisional nature of the results means that final appointments are subject to successful document verification.
This merit list is part of the January Schedule-I recruitment cycle, which aims to fill various positions across the country. The cut-offs can vary significantly from state to state, depending on the number of vacancies and the merit pool available.
As the process unfolds, observers are keenly watching how many candidates will successfully navigate the document verification phase. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any further steps that may follow after the DV process concludes.
