The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) is expected to announce the Civil Services Examination (CSE) Mains Results 2024 in December. Candidates who appeared for the examination will be able to access their results on the official UPSC website, upsc.gov.in. While the exact release date is yet to be confirmed, the timeline aligns with previous years' schedules.
The UPSC CSE follows a rigorous three-stage examination process. The first stage, the prelims, was conducted on June 16, 2024, with the results announced on July 1. The second stage, the mains examination, spanned five days, September 20, 21, 22, 28, and 29, 2024, and was held in two daily shifts: 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM. Candidates who clear the mains will advance to the personality test or interview round, scheduled to commence in January 2025.
This year, the UPSC aims to fill over 1,000 vacancies across prestigious positions such as the Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Foreign Service (IFS), and Indian Police Service (IPS), among others.
Alongside the results, the UPSC will release important details such as the cutoff marks, merit list, and other relevant information for candidates. Aspirants who successfully clear the mains examination will advance to the personality test stage, which serves as a critical evaluation of their suitability for various civil services roles.
