UPSSSC Excise Constable Result 2026: Shortlisting Basis

According to the commission, shortlisting for the Main Examination has been done strictly on the basis of UPSSSC PET 2025 normalised scores. Candidates who scored zero or negative marks in either their actual or normalised PET 2025 score have not been considered eligible for the Mains stage.

UPSSSC has further clarified that the entire shortlisting exercise has been completed in compliance with the directions of the Allahabad High Court, giving the process additional legal sanctity and removing ambiguity for candidates who had raised queries about the eligibility screening.

What Happens After the UPSSSC Excise Constable Result 2026?

The commission is expected to release the detailed UPSSSC Excise Constable Main Exam 2026 schedule shortly. Shortlisted candidates have been advised to keep checking the official website regularly for the exam date, admit card release, and other notifications, and to continue their preparation without any break.

The remaining selection stages include the Mains Written Examination, Physical Measurement Test / Physical Standard Test (PMT/PST), and Document Verification. The Main Examination will be an objective-type paper consisting of 100 multiple-choice questions to be completed in two hours, and candidates should now shift their focus entirely to the Mains syllabus.

UPSSSC Excise Constable Physical Standards (For Next Stage)

Male candidates must have a minimum height of 167.6 cm with chest measurement of 80 cm (unexpanded) and 85 cm (expanded). Female candidates require a minimum height of 152 cm (147 cm for SC/ST) and a minimum weight of 45 kg. Shortlisted candidates who clear the Mains will be called for the PMT/PST round, so physical preparation should begin alongside written exam studies.
