CDS-II 2026 Written Result Kaise Check Karein

  1. UPSC ki official website upsc.gov.in kholen.
  2. Homepage par “Examination Written Results” ya “Active Examination” section me jayein.
  3. “Combined Defence Services Examination (II), 2026” ka result link dhundhein.
  4. Result PDF kholne par apni academy (IMA/INA/AFA/OTA) wali list par jayein — UPSC ne academy-wise alag lists di hain.
  5. Ctrl + F dabakar apna roll number search karein.
  6. PDF download karke save kar lein — SSB ke waqt kaam aayegi.

Result PDF upsc.gov.in se direct download hota hai — publicly available hai, koi login ya registration ID ki zaroorat nahi. Individual marksheet (apne subject-wise marks) abhi nahi milegi — UPSC candidates ke marks final result ke baad online release karta hai. Ek zaroori baat: kuch candidates ek se zyada course-wise lists me hain (OTA Women list ko chhodkar), isliye apni saari applicable lists check karein. Qualification provisional hai — documents verify hone tak final nahi.

CDS-II 2026 Written Exam Pattern Recap

Cut-off samajhne se pehle pattern yaad kar lo:

  • IMA / INA / AFA: English (100 marks, 120 questions), General Knowledge (100 marks, 120 questions), Elementary Mathematics (100 marks, 100 questions) — total 300 marks, har paper 2 ghante ka.
  • OTA (Men / Women): sirf English aur General Knowledge — total 200 marks.
  • Har paper objective type hota hai, har galat jawab par 1/3 negative marking lagti hai, aur har subject me minimum qualifying marks (lagbhag 20%) lana zaroori hai — sirf total score kaafi nahi.
  • UPSC result me academy-wise alag-alag lists nikalta hai, aur academy-wise cut-off bhi alag hota hai.

CDS-II 2026 Expected Cut-Off (Academy-Wise)

Pichhle saal ka official written cut-off aadhar hai. Ye Expected range hai — official cut-off UPSC final selection ke baad release karega.

Written Result Ke Baad Kya Hoga — SSB Process

Written qualify karne wale candidates ab 5-day SSB interview denge:

  • Stage I (Screening): Officer Intelligence Rating test + Picture Perception and Description Test. Jo clear karenge, wahi Stage II me jayenge.
  • Stage II: Psychology tests, Group Testing Officer (GTO) tasks, personal interview aur conference.
  • Medical examination: SSB recommend hone ke baad defence medical standards par fitness check.
  • Document verification: degree, age proof, category certificate, NCC certificate (jahan applicable).
  • Final merit: Written + SSB marks ke total par, academy-wise.

5-day SSB ka din-wise flow aisa hota hai: Day 1 screening (OIR test + PPDT); Day 2 psychology tests (TAT, WAT, SRT, self-description); Day 3–4 GTO tasks (group discussion, group planning, outdoor tasks, command task) aur personal interview; Day 5 conference — jahan saare assessors milkar final recommendation dete hain. SSB ke marks bhi written ke barabar hain (IMA/INA/AFA ke liye 300, OTA ke liye 200), isliye interview me perform karna utna hi zaroori hai jitna written me tha.

Medical me aksar eyesight, flat foot, knock knee, overweight/underweight aur color blindness jaise points par rejection hota hai — AFA ke liye flying-aptitude aur vision standards aur bhi strict hain.

Medical standards kaafi strict hote hain — height, weight, eyesight aur overall fitness sab check hota hai. Apni medical eligibility ka andaza lagane ke liye hamara Medical Standards Checker tool use kar sakte ho.

Salary — Officer Banne Par Kitna Milega

Training ke dauraan Rs.56,100/month fixed stipend milta hai. Commission ke baad Level 10 pay matrix (Rs.56,100–1,77,500) plus Military Service Pay Rs.15,500/month milta hai.

In-hand estimate (7th CPC ke hisaab se): basic 56,100 + DA (~60%, lagbhag 33,660) + MSP 15,500 = total lagbhag Rs.1,05,260; NPS aur tax jaise deductions ke baad in-hand lagbhag Rs.92,000–98,000/month (HRA wale sheher me zyada). Assumption: DA ~60% as of 2026 — ye imandaar estimate hai, official figure nahi. Apne exact pay level ka hisaab lagane ke liye Salary Calculator use karo.
