SSC MTS Result 2026: What Has Been Announced?
SSC has currently released the result of the Computer-Based Examination to shortlist candidates for the Havaldar PET/PST stage.
Candidates have been shortlisted in a ratio of 1:7, which means approximately seven candidates have been called for every available Havaldar vacancy. The shortlisting has been carried out using the candidates’ normalized marks in Session II of the examination.
Because the CBT was conducted in multiple shifts, SSC applied its prescribed normalization formula to ensure fairness across different examination dates and shifts. Only candidates who qualified in Session I were eligible to have their Session II performance evaluated.
Candidates were also considered only for those Post-cum-Controlling Cadre Authorities for which they had submitted preferences in their online application form.
Category-Wise Candidates Shortlisted for PET/PST
SSC has provisionally shortlisted the following number of candidates for the Havaldar physical tests:
| Category | Vacancies | Candidates Shortlisted |
| EWS | 120 | 840 |
| SC | 126 | 882 |
| ST | 87 | 609 |
| OBC | 237 | 1,659 |
| UR | 448 | 3,136 |
| ESM | 99 | 693 |
| OH | 13 | 91 |
| HH | 11 | 77 |
| Other PwBD | 12 | 84 |
| Total | 1,138 | 8,071 |
The UR shortlisted figure also includes candidates belonging to reserved categories who qualified at the UR cutoff. Category-wise and CCA-wise Havaldar cutoff marks have been provided in Annexure I of the official result notice.
Minimum Qualifying Marks
Candidates were required to secure the minimum qualifying percentage in both Session I and Session II of the CBT.
The prescribed minimum qualifying marks are:
- Unreserved category: 30%
- OBC and EWS categories: 25%
- All other categories: 20%
Securing the minimum qualifying marks alone did not guarantee shortlisting. Candidates also had to meet the relevant category-wise and CCA-wise cutoff based on normalized marks, vacancy availability and the preferences submitted in the application form.
How to Check SSC MTS and Havaldar Result 2026
Candidates can follow these steps to check their qualifying status:
- Visit the official website of the Staff Selection Commission.
- Open the Results or Latest Notices section.
- Look for the notice titled “Multi-Tasking (Non-Technical) Staff and Havaldar Examination 2025 – Declaration of Result of Computer-Based Examination.”
- Open the result PDF and the shortlisted-candidate list.
- Use the Ctrl + F keyboard command.
- Enter your roll number or name in the search box.
- Check whether your details appear in the shortlisted list.
- Download and save the result notice for future reference.
Candidates should rely only on SSC’s official notices for information about PET/PST dates, admit cards, reporting time and examination centres.
What Happens After the SSC Havaldar Result?
The 8,071 shortlisted candidates will have to participate in the Physical Efficiency Test and Physical Standard Test. SSC will announce the physical-test schedule separately on its website.
Qualifying the PET/PST is compulsory for final consideration for the Havaldar post. Candidates who fail the physical tests will not be considered for Havaldar selection.
However, failure in the Havaldar PET/PST will not automatically cancel a candidate’s MTS candidature. Candidates who separately meet the requirements for the MTS post may continue to be considered for MTS allocation.
SSC has stated that the first round of tentative allocation for MTS and Havaldar will be declared together after the completion of the Havaldar PET/PST.
Important Instructions for Shortlisted Candidates
Candidates shortlisted for PET/PST should begin preparing for the physical stage without waiting for the detailed schedule. They should regularly check official updates and keep their registration details, result PDF, identity proof and supporting certificates ready.
Candidates belonging to reserved categories must ensure that their category certificates meet the format and validity conditions prescribed by SSC. Any mismatch in the candidate’s name, date of birth, category or application details should be reported through the appropriate SSC regional office.
The Commission has also informed candidates that the final answer keys and marks of qualified and non-qualified candidates will be uploaded after the declaration of the final result of the examination.
Results Withheld or Not Processed
SSC has withheld the results of two candidates because of suspected activities. The results of 727 candidates were not processed following post-examination analysis related to alleged malpractice, while the results of another 169 candidates were debarred by the respective regional offices for different reasons.
Candidates affected by the malpractice-related decision may submit representations to the concerned SSC regional office as permitted in the official notice.
Conclusion
The declaration of the SSC MTS and Havaldar CBT Result 2026 is an important milestone in the recruitment process. Out of more than eight lakh candidates who appeared for the examination, 8,071 have moved to the Havaldar physical-test stage.
Shortlisted candidates should now focus on PET/PST preparation and monitor the official SSC portal for the schedule. Candidates awaiting MTS selection should note that the tentative allocation result for both MTS and Havaldar will be released at a later stage after the physical tests are completed.
