SSC CPO PET PST Result 2026: 10,676 Qualify for Paper II

The SSC CPO PET PST Result 2026 is out, and 10,676 candidates have qualified for Paper II. The Staff Selection Commission published the result on 29 October 2026 for the Sub-Inspector in Delhi Police and CAPFs Examination, 2025, and the next stage is the English paper, tentatively set for 28 November 2026. The result comes as three PDF lists on ssc.gov.in, one for women, one for men, and one for candidates whose results were withheld.

If your roll number sits in the first two lists, the written paper is next. If it sits in the third, your result is on hold, and the notice says to follow SSC communications for what happens next. The SSC CPO Result 2026 lists are the only ones that count, so check the official PDFs yourself. Screenshots in coaching groups have already mixed up this result with the older Paper I list.

Where the 10,676 comes from

A total of 48,387 candidates cleared Paper I and were called for the physical tests. The write-up breaks down what happened to them, and the arithmetic is exact.

The absent figure is the one most summaries skip, and it changes how the result reads. More than half the candidates called for the physical tests never turned up: 26,949 of 48,387. Of the 21,438 who did appear, 10,676 qualified and 10,622 did not, so about half the candidates who showed up went through. The physical stage cut the field by as much as the written paper did, just in a different way.

Four candidates were marked temporarily unfit, all women, and the write-up names their roll numbers: 225130094703, 825130006474, 725130005042 and 225130046518. A temporarily unfit result is not a rejection. It means the medical board found a condition that can change, and the candidate gets another look under the rules.

The 136 withheld results are different. SSC held those back on the recommendation of the nodal force, the Border Security Force, and their roll numbers sit in List 3.

The category split, counted from the lists

The lists carry a category code with every roll number, so the split can be counted rather than quoted. I counted both lists record by record. List 1 holds 510 women and List 2 holds 10,166 men, which adds to 10,676 exactly.

The write-up disagrees with its own lists, and that is worth stating plainly. Its category table prints 518 women and 10,298 men, which adds to 10,816, or 140 more than the 10,676 roll numbers in the lists. The write-up summary and the lists agree on 10,676, so this post follows the lists. If you see 518 and 10,298 quoted elsewhere, that is where the numbers come from, and they do not match the PDFs candidates actually check.

OBC is the largest block in both lists, 183 women and 3,888 men. UR comes next. Some men carry two codes, one for Delhi Police and one for the CAPFs, because the same candidate can be OBC for one force and UR for the other. Ex-servicemen sit inside these category counts, not beside them.

How to check your roll number

Open ssc.gov.in and go to the Results section. Find the notice titled Sub-Inspector in Delhi Police and CAPFs Examination, 2025, Declaration of Result of PET/PST for Appearing in Paper-II. Download the list that fits you, List 1 for women or List 2 for men, and search inside the PDF with Ctrl+F or the find option on your phone. If your number is in List 3, your result is withheld, and the notice points you to SSC communications rather than to any further step right now.

Save the PDF once you have it. The Paper II admit card will carry the same roll number, and the regional office sites will ask for it again. If ssc.gov.in is slow, wait and try again rather than trusting a screenshot forwarded in a group.

Paper II on 28 November

Paper II is a single paper on English Language and Comprehension: 200 questions, 200 marks, two hours. The result notice calls 28 November 2026 tentative, and the admission certificates will come from the regional SSC offices in due course, not from the commission headquarters. Watch your regional office website, since that is where the certificate will appear first.

The physical tests were qualifying only, so no PET or PST score carries into the merit list. The final selection rests on Paper I and Paper II, followed by the medical examination and document verification under the recruitment rules.

A total of 97 candidates will sit Paper II even though their cases are before the courts. The write-up lists their roll numbers and says plainly that appearing in Paper II gives them no right to selection. Their candidature stays subject to the final outcome of the court cases.

SSC declared another result the same week. The SSC JHT result named 532 candidates in the first allocation for the Junior Hindi Translator exam, with document verification on 18 November. The SSB Head Constable Ministerial result shortlisted 1,725 candidates for the typing test on 16 and 18 November. Both are worth a look if you are tracking this season's uniformed force selections.

Check your roll number in the official PDF today, then watch your regional SSC website for the Paper II admission certificate.

Sources & verification: SSC result write-up F.No. E/13/2025-C-2, dated 29 October 2026, read first hand from the official PDF on ssc.gov.in on 8 November 2026. The write-up gives the 48,387 Paper I qualified figure, the 21 to 30 July 2026 PET and PST dates, the summary table, the 28 November 2026 tentative Paper II date, the 97 provisionally permitted candidates and the four temporarily unfit roll numbers. The three result lists, List 1, List 2 and List 3, read first hand from the official PDFs on ssc.gov.in on 8 November 2026 and counted directly: List 1 holds records 1 to 510, List 2 holds records 1 to 10,166 and List 3 holds records 1 to 136, a total of 10,676 qualified roll numbers. The category split in this post is the direct count of the category codes in those lists. The notification facts, the 26 September 2025 notification date, the 3,073 tentative vacancies, the 9 to 12 December 2025 Paper I dates and the Paper II pattern of 200 questions and 200 marks in two hours, come from the SSC CPO 2025 notification as reported across multiple trackers, since the notification PDF itself was not read first hand for this post.
