WB Police Constable Result 2025: WBPRB releases written exam results; shortlisted candidates to appear for PMT and PET starting January 8, 2026.
A total of 60,170 candidates have qualified in the written examination and advanced to the next stage of the recruitment process. These qualified candidates will now appear for the Physical Measurement Test (PMT) and Physical Efficiency Test (PET), tentatively scheduled to commence on January 8, 2026.
The Recruitment Snapshot
This recruitment drive aims to fill 11,749 vacancies across the West Bengal Police force, making it one of the largest police recruitment initiatives in the state.
The massive number of qualified candidates is 60,170 out of lakhs who appeared which reflects the competitive nature of this examination.
The 1:5 qualification ratio (approximately 60,170 qualified out of around 12 lakh applications) follows the standard selection pattern where candidates are shortlisted at a ratio greater than the actual vacancies to account for medical unfitness, document verification rejections, and voluntary withdrawals during subsequent stages.

What the Result Means
Your name appearing in the merit list PDF indicates one critical thing: you have qualified the written examination and are eligible to appear for the next stages. However, appearing in the result does not guarantee appointment, it merely advances you to the physical tests phase.
The written examination tests your knowledge across four subjects:
| Subject | Number of Questions | Total Marks |
| English | 10 | 10 |
| General Awareness & General Knowledge | 25 | 25 |
| Reasoning & Logical Analysis | 25 | 25 |
| Elementary Mathematics (Madhyamik Standard) | 25 | 25 |
| Total | 85 | 85 |
Moreover, there was no negative marking in the examination, which benefited many candidates by encouraging them to attempt all questions without fear of penalties.
Expected Cut-Off Marks
Although WBPRB has not yet released the official cut-off marks, analysis of previous recruitment cycles suggests the following expected ranges:
| Category | Expected Cut-Off (out of 85) |
| General (UR) | 58 – 62 |
| OBC-A | 55 – 59 |
| OBC-B | 54 – 58 |
| SC | 50 – 54 |
| ST | 47 – 51 |
| EWS | 56 – 60 |
These are estimated figures based on previous cycles and should not be treated as official cut-offs. The actual cut-off marks will be released by WBPRB.

Critical Advice for Qualified Candidates
- Prepare Physically: Do not delay your physical preparation. PMT and PET will be conducted within just 10 days of the admit card release. Start your fitness regimen immediately if you haven’t already. Focus on running, flexibility, and endurance training.
- Keep Documents Ready: Prepare all original certificates, educational qualifications (10th, 12th, degree), caste certificate (if applicable), domicile certificate, and valid ID proof. Any discrepancy during document verification can lead to disqualification.
- Monitor Official Website: Check prb.wb.gov.in and wbpolice.gov.in regularly for admit cards, schedule updates, and official notifications. Avoid relying solely on unofficial sources.
- Download Your Result: Once your result is confirmed, download and save the PDF in multiple places, email, cloud storage, and printed copy. This document will be required throughout the recruitment process.
​
- Address Medical Issues: If you have any pre-existing health conditions, consult a doctor before the medical examination. Transparency is crucial and hiding medical issues can disqualify you later.
