GPSC DV 2026 - Candidate Shortlisting Norms (Vacancy-Wise Ratio)

GPSC follows a structured, transparent ratio for determining how many candidates are called for document verification and personal interview per vacancy. These norms are as per the GPSC office order dated 25 November 2025.

What Happens After Document Verification - Next Steps

Candidates who clear the document verification stage will move on to the personal interview round. Here is what the overall selection pipeline looks like after DV.

• Step 1 - Application Scrutiny (DV): Candidates upload documents online. GPSC verifies eligibility against recruitment rules, advertisement requirements, age, qualifications, and experience.
• Step 2 - Personal Interview (Face-to-Face Interview): Candidates who pass document verification are called for a personal interview. The shortlist for interviews will be published on the GPSC notice board after scrutiny is complete.

Provisional Extension of DV List

If the current 260 shortlisted candidates do not yield sufficient interview-eligible candidates, GPSC may - on a provisional basis - extend the DV list by including candidates above the minimum qualifying threshold as fixed by office orders dated 04 July 2025 and 17 September 2025. Candidates with marks equal to the last candidate in a category will also be included, which could increase the total count.
