The Staff Selection Commission has declared the SSC CPO 2025 Paper-I results for recruitment of Sub-Inspectors in Delhi Police and the Central Armed Police Forces, with 48,615 candidates qualifying for the next stage of the selection process.

Candidates who appeared for the examination held between December 9 and 12, 2025 can now check their results on the official SSC website. Those who have cleared Paper I will proceed to the Physical Endurance Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST).

Female representation low among qualifiers

According to official data, out of the total qualified candidates, only 4,320 are from the female list (List-I), highlighting a relatively low participation compared to 44,067 male candidates in List-II. Additionally, 228 candidates have qualified under the male departmental category (List-III) for Delhi Police.

The results reflect a strong overall turnout, with the bulk of successful candidates emerging from the general recruitment lists across both Delhi Police and CAPFs.

The commission has also published category-wise cut-off marks, alongside minimum qualifying thresholds. Candidates were required to secure at least 30% (60 marks) for Unreserved (UR), 25% (50 marks) for OBC/EWS, and 20% (40 marks) for SC/ST categories.

Final cut-offs (Paper I):

While Lists I and II cover candidates shortlisted for both Delhi Police and CAPFs, List-III is reserved exclusively for in-service Delhi Police personnel under the departmental quota.
