Candidates whose roll numbers are listed in the Preliminary result PDF are officially shortlisted to appear for the JPSC Mains Examination.

JPSC Civil Services 2026 – What Qualified Candidates Should Know

The upcoming JPSC Mains Examination is a radically different challenge from the preliminary stage. It is entirely descriptive in nature and consists of six compulsory papers. The papers cover General Hindi and General English (qualifying), Regional Language, History & Geography, Indian Constitution & Polity, Indian Economy, and General Science, Environment & Technology. Candidates must secure the minimum qualifying marks mandated by the commission across these descriptive papers to be considered for the final Personality Test (Interview).

Successful candidates ultimately selected for premium posts like Deputy Collector and Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) enter the state administration at Pay Level 9 of the 7th Central Pay Commission (CPC). The basic pay matrix starts at ₹53,100 and goes up to ₹1,67,800. Factoring in the current State Dearness Allowance (DA), House Rent Allowance (HRA), Transport Allowance, and other perks, the starting gross monthly salary is highly lucrative, generally exceeding ₹80,000.

For candidates aiming for the Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP), Jail Superintendent, or Probation Officer roles, passing the written Mains is not enough. They must also clear a stringent Physical Measurement Test (PMT) during the medical verification phase. Male candidates typically require a minimum height of 165 cm (with relaxations for reserved categories), while specific chest expansion criteria also apply.
