SSC does not publish a cut-off in advance. It publishes cut-offs when results are declared. This page reproduces official figures from one document: SSC's write-up of 19 June 2026 declaring the result of the Computer Based Examination (CBE) of the Constable (Executive) Male and Female in Delhi Police Examination, 2025. That is the newest cycle notified as of 13 November 2026, and its CBE result is the newest Delhi Police Constable result we found in the Delhi Police Constable (Executive) section of the SSC notice board. Nothing is estimated. Sums, ratios and gaps are our arithmetic and are marked.
How Delhi Police Constable cut-offs are fixed
Unlike the SSC Constable (GD) examination, this one has no State-wise lists. All vacancies are in Delhi Police and candidates from the whole country compete in one pool. The notice requires separate lists for:
- each category (Unreserved, EWS, OBC, SC, ST),
- male and female candidates, and
- among men, two ex-servicemen sub-quotas: ESM (Others) and ESM (Commando).
Marks are out of 100. The CBE was held in several shifts from 18 December 2025 to 6 January 2026, and the write-up says marks were normalised by the formula SSC published on 2 June 2025. That is why cut-offs run to five decimal places.
Two floors apply before any cut-off. The minimum qualifying marks in the CBE, without NCC bonus, are:
| Category | Minimum marks (out of 100) |
|---|---|
| Unreserved | 35 |
| SC/ST/OBC/EWS | 30 |
| Ex-servicemen | 25 |
The notice says the number shortlisted for the PE&MT/DV is around 12 times the vacancies. Where fewer candidates than that are available above the floor, the floor itself becomes the cut-off. That is why several ex-servicemen rows below read exactly 25.00000.
Male candidates, open list: CBE 2025
Marks of the last candidate shortlisted for the PE&MT/DV, from List-I of the write-up. "Open" is SSC's label for male vacancies outside the ex-servicemen quota.
| Category | Vacancies | Candidates shortlisted | Cut-off marks | Part A marks of last candidate | Part B marks of last candidate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| UR | 1,733 | 3,751 | 70.05181 | 27.50 | 22.50 |
| OBC | 956 | 13,611 | 70.05181 | 27.25 | 23.75 |
| EWS | 434 | 6,941 | 68.54551 | 25.25 | 21.25 |
| SC | 729 | 9,945 | 62.83696 | 23.00 | 23.75 |
| ST | 337 | 4,311 | 60.08088 | 17.25 | 21.25 |
SSC's footnote to the UR row: 5,035 EWS, 1,197 SC, 267 ST and 10,546 OBC candidates qualified at the UR standard in the open sub-category.
Things to read from this table:
- The UR and OBC cut-offs were the same mark, 70.05181. Two different candidates stood last in the two lists with equal totals. An OBC candidate needed the UR mark to be shortlisted in this cycle.
- The UR line is about 12 per vacancy once the footnote is added. 3,751 plus the 17,045 reserved-category candidates at the UR standard is 20,796, which is 12.0 times the 1,733 UR vacancies (our arithmetic, reading the 3,751 as UR-category candidates only).
- The gap from UR to ST was about 10 marks (70.05 against 60.08; arithmetic). EWS was 1.5 marks below UR and SC 7.2 below.
- Part A marks of the last candidates were low for a 50-mark part. The last UR candidate had 27.50 of 50 in General Knowledge/Current Affairs and 22.50 of 25 in Reasoning. The write-up prints only Part A and Part B, because those two decide ties. Read this as one candidate's split, not a pattern.
Female candidates: CBE 2025
From List-II of the write-up.
| Category | Vacancies | Candidates shortlisted | Cut-off marks | Part A marks of last candidate | Part B marks of last candidate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| UR | 948 | 2,317 | 63.52622 | 17.75 | 21.75 |
| OBC | 525 | 7,248 | 63.05564 | 24.25 | 21.75 |
| EWS | 238 | 3,804 | 61.55681 | 27.75 | 20.25 |
| SC | 457 | 6,242 | 54.60305 | 15.00 | 20.25 |
| ST | 208 | 2,624 | 49.06871 | 18.00 | 21.50 |
SSC's footnote to the UR row: 2,751 EWS, 758 SC, 128 ST and 5,422 OBC candidates qualified at the UR standard.
- The female UR cut-off was 6.5 marks below the male open UR cut-off (63.53 against 70.05; arithmetic). The gap was similar in OBC (7.0) and EWS (7.0), and wider in SC (8.2) and ST (11.0).
- Adding the footnote to the UR row gives 11,376 candidates at the UR standard, 12.0 times the 948 UR vacancies (our arithmetic, on the same reading as above).
- OBC was within half a mark of UR here as well.
Male ex-servicemen: CBE 2025
| Sub-quota | Category | Vacancies | Candidates shortlisted | Cut-off marks |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ESM (Others) | UR | 96 | 1,152 | 28.79827 |
| ESM (Others) | OBC | 53 | 814 | 28.79827 |
| ESM (Others) | EWS | 24 | 78 | 25.00000 |
| ESM (Others) | SC | 62 | 117 | 25.00000 |
| ESM (Others) | ST | 36 | 25 | 25.00000 |
| ESM (Commando) | UR | 96 | 1,002 | 25.00000 |
| ESM (Commando) | OBC | 56 | 1,296 | 25.00000 |
| ESM (Commando) | EWS | 24 | 94 | 25.00000 |
| ESM (Commando) | SC | 138 | 481 | 25.00000 |
| ESM (Commando) | ST | 51 | 223 | 25.00000 |
- Only two ex-servicemen lists, ESM (Others) UR and OBC, had a cut-off above the 25-mark floor. 1,152 is exactly 12 times 96 (arithmetic).
- In every other row the cut-off is the minimum qualifying mark, and SSC prints no part-wise marks for them. In ESM (Others) ST, 25 candidates were shortlisted for 36 vacancies, fewer than one per vacancy.
- The Commando sub-quota is open only to ex-servicemen who served in the Special Forces or NSG, hold a "Qualified Instructor" grading in the Commando course, or are Navy or Air Force officers from commando-type units.
Vacancies in the result against the notice
The vacancy column in the result write-up is not the same as the tentative table in the notice of 22 September 2025.
| Post | Notice (22.09.2025) | Result write-up (19.06.2026), sum of categories |
|---|---|---|
| Constable (Exe.) Male, open | 4,408 | 4,189 |
| Male, ESM (Others) | 285 | 271 |
| Male, ESM (Commando) | 376 | 365 |
| Constable (Exe.) Female | 2,496 | 2,376 |
| Total | 7,565 | 7,201 |
The right-hand column is our addition of the category figures printed in the write-up. The notice itself says vacancies are provisional and liable to change, and that Delhi Police, not SSC, decides them. We did not find a separate SSC notice explaining the revision, so we report both sets as printed. For example, male open UR is 1,914 in the notice and 1,733 in the result, while male open SC is 729 in both.
The headline numbers of the 2025 CBE result
From the write-up of 19 June 2026 and the corrigendum of 3 September 2026:
- The lists above add up to 66,076 shortlisted entries: 38,559 in the male open list, 2,186 in ESM (Others), 3,096 in ESM (Commando) and 22,235 female (our arithmetic from the "Candidates shortlisted" column).
- Results of 11 candidates were withheld for suspected malpractice.
- Results of 423 candidates were not processed because post-examination analysis found them indulging in malpractice. By the corrigendum of 3 September 2026 these 423 were provisionally allowed to take part in the PE&MT, in compliance with an interim order of the Central Administrative Tribunal, New Delhi, dated 20 August 2026, subject to the final outcome of the cases.
- The candidature of 5 candidates was cancelled and 69 were debarred by SSC's Regional Offices.
- Final answer keys were used for the result. The write-up says final keys, response sheets and marks of qualified and non-qualified candidates would be uploaded "in due course".
What happens after this cut-off
The CBE cut-off is the door to the PE&MT, not selection.
- Delhi Police conducts the PE&MT and document verification in Delhi and issues admission certificates on delhipolice.gov.in.
- Candidates who clear the race, long jump, high jump and physical measurement, and whose documents are in order, are considered for the final merit list.
- The final select list is made on aggregate CBE marks, category-wise, separately for men and women. The write-up says NCC and RRU bonus marks are awarded in the final result to those who produce the certificates. On 100 marks an NCC 'C' certificate is worth 5 marks, 'B' 3 and 'A' 2; an RRU degree or diploma is worth 2 to 5 (arithmetic from the percentages in the notice).
- Ties are resolved by Part A marks, then Part B marks, then date of birth (older first), then name.
- A reserve panel of 15% is given to Delhi Police in a sealed cover and is not published.
Because around 12 candidates per vacancy reach the PE&MT and roughly one is finally selected, the last-selected mark in the final result will be higher than the figures on this page. How much higher depends on how many shortlisted candidates fail or skip the physical test, which no one can know in advance. We do not guess it.
How to use these numbers
- Find your own row. Category and gender, and for ex-servicemen the sub-quota. There are no State-wise lists.
- Treat the CBE cut-off as the door, not the target. A score just above it puts you last in a queue of 12 per vacancy.
- Count bonus marks honestly. If you hold an NCC certificate or an RRU qualification dated on or before the closing date of the form, the marks are added in the final result. If you do not, others at your score may finish ahead of you.
- Check your percentile, not just your score. On Pareeksha everyone in a cohort sits the same fixed paper, so your percentile is a like-for-like comparison. See how fixed-paper percentile works.
- Do not neglect the physical test. A score above the cut-off is void if you do not finish 1600 metres in time or miss a jump. See exam pattern and preparation.
What this page does not have
- The final cut-off of the 2025 cycle. The PE&MT result and the final result were not on the SSC notice board as of 13 November 2026.
- Cut-offs of earlier cycles (the 2023 examination and before). We only publish figures we have read from an SSC notice in this check, and we did not open the older write-ups.
- The number of candidates who appeared in the CBE, and part-wise marks for Part C and Part D of the last shortlisted candidates. The write-up does not print them.
- The reason for the difference between the vacancy figures in the notice and in the result.
- Any estimate of a "safe score" or of the next cycle's cut-off.
