Factors Affecting DSSSB PRT Cut Off 2026
The cutoff changes every year depending on several factors, which explains why the marks differ across categories and exam cycles. Here are the main factors that shaped the DSSSB PRT cutoff 2026.
-
Number of vacancies: With 1169 posts announced, a larger vacancy count allows more candidates to be shortlisted, which can pull the cutoff down.
-
Number of candidates: Over 83,000 candidates appeared, so strong competition keeps the cutoff high, especially in the UR category.
-
Difficulty level of the exam: The exam was held over several days in multiple shifts. A tougher paper lowers the overall scores and the cutoff.
-
Category-wise reservation: Seats are divided among UR, OBC, SC, ST, EWS and PwBD, so each category has its own cutoff.
-
Number of candidates shortlisted: The Board calls more candidates for e-dossier verification than the number of posts, which sets the cutoff mark.
-
Normalisation of marks: Because the exam ran in different shifts, score adjustment can change the final marks.
-
Qualifying rules: Minimum qualifying marks apply only to Section B, while the combined marks of Section A and B decide the merit list.
-
Previous year trends: Earlier cutoffs help the Board and candidates estimate the expected score range.
