SSC MTS Result 2026: Cut Off, Qualifying Marks, PET/PST Process & Next Stage

Candidates shortlisted in List-I have successfully cleared the Computer-Based Examination for the Havaldar post. Their next step is the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST).

Candidates who do not find their roll number in List-I should not assume they are out of the recruitment process. The allocation process for the MTS post will be announced after the completion of the Havaldar PET/PST stage.

Minimum Qualifying Marks

SSC has prescribed minimum qualifying marks for both Session-I and Session-II of the Computer-Based Examination.

These are only the minimum qualifying marks. Meeting these marks does not guarantee selection for the next stage. Final shortlisting depends on vacancies, category, and normalized scores.

How SSC Prepared the Result

The examination was conducted in multiple shifts. To ensure fairness, SSC used a normalization process.

Important Points

• Scores were normalized across different shifts.
• Session-II normalized marks were used for shortlisting.
• Candidates meeting the required cut-off were shortlisted.
• Shortlisting was done according to available vacancies and reservation rules.
• Candidate preferences submitted during the application process were also considered where applicable.

Normalization helps maintain fairness when question difficulty varies between shifts.

PET/PST Shortlisting Ratio

SSC shortlisted candidates for the Havaldar PET/PST based on an approximate ratio of 1:7 against the available vacancies.

This means nearly seven candidates were shortlisted for every reported vacancy to ensure sufficient availability during the physical test stage.

Tie-Breaking Rules

If two or more candidates secured the same normalized score, SSC followed a tie-breaking process.

Tie Resolution Order

1. Higher marks in General Awareness (Session-II).
2. Higher total normalized marks in Session-I.
3. Older candidate (based on date of birth).
4. Alphabetical order of the candidate's name.

These rules were applied to prepare the final merit list for PET/PST.

What if Your Roll Number Is Not in List-I?

Many candidates become worried if they cannot find their roll number in the Havaldar shortlist.

However, the present result is only for the Havaldar PET/PST stage.

If you applied for the MTS post, you should wait for the First Round of Tentative Allocation, which will be announced after the completion of the Havaldar physical tests.

What If You Fail PET/PST?

Candidates who do not qualify in the PET/PST will not be considered for the final Havaldar merit list.

However, if they are eligible for MTS based on the allocation process, their candidature for the MTS post may still remain valid, subject to SSC rules.

Withheld & Debarred Candidates

SSC also released details regarding candidates whose results were not processed.

Affected candidates should follow the official SSC notification for further instructions.

When Will SSC Release Marks & Final Answer Key?

The Commission has confirmed that the Final Answer Key and individual candidate marks will be released after the completion of the entire recruitment process.

Candidates should regularly check the official SSC website for updates.

Preparation Tips for PET/PST

Candidates shortlisted for the physical test should begin preparation immediately.

Recommended Tips

• Practice daily running.
• Improve stamina through regular exercise.
