CGL 2025 — by the numbers

Tier-2 cut-off marks (category-wise)

Cut-offs reflect normalised section marks. UR candidates needed a combined ~117 out of 200 to clear both sections — a slight uptick over CGL 2024's UR cut-off, consistent with the smaller Tier-2 cohort this cycle. SC, ST and PwBD candidates qualified at the standard 36/42 floor.

Why two merit lists — List-1 vs List-2

SSC released the CGL 2025 result in two separate merit panels because eligibility and paper structure differ across post groups:

• List-1 — JSO + Statistical Investigator: These posts require a Statistics-specific Tier-2 paper (Paper II — Statistics). Merit is calculated using Paper I + Paper II combined. Posts go to the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) and other allied departments.
• List-2 — Other CGL posts: Inspector of Income Tax (CBDT), Inspector of Central Excise (CBIC), Assistant Section Officer (MEA / CAG / Ministry of Railways / others), Auditor, Accountant, Tax Assistant, Sub-Inspector (CBI / NIA), Postal Inspector and so on. Merit is calculated from Paper I (combined Section I + II + III) only, with AAO / AAuO candidates getting an additional Paper III (Finance + Economics).

The lists are non-overlapping. A candidate's name appears in exactly one list based on the posts applied for during the option-cum-preference window (held 9-12 March 2026).

Next steps — Document Verification + Joining

With no waiting list, the recommended candidates will move directly to departmental verification. The general flow:

1. Allotment notice from SSC — typically within 4-6 weeks of the final result. SSC publishes a separate notice mapping each Roll Number to a specific department + post code.
2. Department contact — CBDT, CBIC, MEA, CAG, Railways, Intelligence Bureau, NIA, Postal each have a separate DV cell. Candidates receive an email + dak notification with the DV venue and date.
3. Documents to carry: Class 10 + 12 certificates, Bachelor's degree marksheet + provisional / final degree, age proof, category certificate (SC / ST / OBC-NCL / EWS) in the prescribed central-government format, PwBD certificate (if applicable), photo ID, recent passport-sized photographs, and the printed online application from the original SSC CGL 2025 submission.
4. Medical fitness (where applicable) — Inspectors and Sub-Inspectors undergo a Physical Standards Test + medical exam at the allotting department's CGHS hospital.
5. Joining + probation — Final joining at the allotted office, typically June-September 2026 depending on department. Two-year probation applies; inter-departmental transfer is normally barred during probation.

For sister recruitment tracks while you await your joining order, see SSC CGL 2026 (next cycle) and SSC GD Constable. For graduate-level Railway parallels, RRB NTPC covers comparable Group C posts.

Did not clear the cut-off?

SSC has confirmed no waiting list for CGL 2025. Candidates not on either merit list have the following next steps:

1. SSC CGL 2026 cycle — Notification typically releases in June each year. Apply when the notice goes live at our CGL 2026 hub. With ~15,000+ vacancies expected, CGL 2026 offers the next major shot at the same posts.
2. Cross-apply to parallel central recruitments — RRB NTPC covers Railway graduate-level posts. IBPS PO covers Bank Probationary Officer roles (similar selection rigour, decent prep overlap with CGL Quant + Reasoning).
3. Re-evaluate weak sections — Section I (Math + Reasoning) decides ~60% of the CGL 2025 final merit. Focus aggressive prep on previous-year Tier-2 papers and section-wise speed drills before the CGL 2026 notification drops.
4. Watch for departmental direct recruitments — CBDT, CBIC, CAG and Railways periodically release direct recruitment for Inspector / ASO / Auditor / Accountant posts outside the CGL channel. These typically have smaller vacancies but lower competition.
