The Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board is preparing to drop the UP Police Constable Result 2026 in the last week of July 2026 at uppbpb.gov.in. The result follows an offline written examination held across Uttar Pradesh on 8, 9 and 10 June 2026, contested by candidates who applied for 32,679 vacancies across constable and jail warden posts. UPPRPB has not published a calendar date for the scorecard; subject trackers and the recruitment board’s portal both point to the final week of the month for the merit list release.
Those who clear the written stage will move into four further rounds before the final roster is locked: document verification combined with a Physical Standards Test (PST), a timed Physical Efficiency Test (PET), a medical check, and a consolidated merit list. Past cut-offs are the only public reference points candidates have, because the qualifying mark shifts with each cycle’s difficulty, the applicant pool, and the post count. The result PDF will carry category-wise qualifying marks alongside the roll-number shortlist.
Where the Recruitment Stands Now
UPPRPB told candidates it would release the UP Police Constable Result 2026 at the recruitment board’s portal, uppbpb.gov.in, after the offline test completed on 10 June 2026. As of mid-July, the official portal has not flipped the result notice live; subject trackers now place the release in the last week of July 2026.
The Board released the recruitment notification on 31 December 2025 and accepted online applications until 30 January 2026, the close of the application window that ran on the same portal. Admit cards were expected in the last week of May, ahead of the three-day test on 8, 9 and 10 June 2026. The next step on UPPRPB’s calendar is OMR-sheet evaluation and publication of the merit list PDF, which carries qualifying and non-qualifying roll numbers side by side. Until then, candidates can only check the portal’s notice section for a date stamp.
After the merit list goes live, the Board slots the qualifying candidates into the document-verification and physical-tests stage. That stage, plus a medical check and a final consolidated list, runs over several weeks before the appointment letters are issued. The full calendar from notification to appointment letter now sits closer to the wire than the recruitment cycle usually runs.
The Recruitment Was Built Around 32,679 Posts
UPPRPB’s notification on 31 December 2025 opened the recruitment cycle at 32,679 vacancies, the post count published with the notification PDF. The Board groups the positions into categories, with Civil Police carrying the largest share of the total and the other categories filling out the published break-up. Each category has its own reservation pattern under the cycle, with male and female candidates eligible for different roles across the listed posts. The summary table below lays out the post categories and their eligibility criteria as published.
Online applications opened on 31 December 2025 and stayed open until 30 January 2026. Candidates paid the application fee online through debit card, credit card, net banking, or UPI; the ₹400 fee applied to General, OBC, and EWS applicants, with SC/ST candidates exempted from the charge. One-time registration was the mandatory first step, with each form slotting through a preview screen before final submission.
Once applications closed, the Board slotted the written examination into an OMR-based offline test spread across 8, 9 and 10 June 2026. Multiple shifts across those dates handled the applicant pool, with morning and afternoon slots at centres across Uttar Pradesh. Exam-city intimation slips and admit cards were released on the portal in the days before the test, allowing candidates to confirm their centre and shift before sitting the paper. The OMR sheets reached evaluation centres the next week, with the Board’s processing teams taking over from there.
Each post category carries its own reservation pattern, with male and female candidates eligible for different roles. PAC Armed Force and PAC Special Force remained male-only in this cycle, and Mounted Police carried a small allocation for horse-rider candidates. The official notification PDF lists the full count and gender eligibility for each category, and it remains the working reference until the result is published.
| Post Category | Candidate Eligibility |
|---|---|
| Constable Civil Police | Male and Female candidates |
| Constable PAC Armed Force | Male candidates only |
| Constable PAC Special Force | Male candidates only |
| Constable Battalion | Female candidates only |
| Constable Mounted Police | Horse-rider candidates |
| Jail Warden | Male and Female candidates |
What Comes After the Written Test
UPPRPB’s selection process for the constable cadre runs through five formal stages, with the written examination being the first filter. The four stages that follow hinge on physical fitness, verification of records, and a final consolidated merit list. Each stage is qualifying, meaning a candidate who fails at one is not carried forward to the next. The shape of the calendar after the result depends on how quickly the Board closes the OMR-evaluation window.
The OMR-sheet test that ran in June had 150 questions across General Hindi, General Knowledge, Numerical and Mental Ability, and Mental Aptitude or Logical Reasoning. Each correct answer carried two marks, taking the total to 300, with a 0.5-mark deduction applied for every wrong answer and 150 minutes of testing time. After the test, the Board’s evaluation team works through the OMR sheets before publishing the merit list. Candidates who clear the written stage move into Document Verification and a Physical Standards Test, where the height and chest measurements are confirmed against the published norms. The DV/PST round must be passed before the PET run is scheduled, with a medical check wrapping up the pre-selection process.
Where the Recent Cutoffs Landed
Category-wise cut-offs are tied to the merit list PDF when it lands. No official threshold has been published for the 2026 cycle, and the qualifying mark varies cycle by cycle on paper difficulty and applicant count. Until the PDF is uploaded, candidates can only calibrate against the published cycles and third-party projections. Those projections are the only public reference points until UPPRPB confirms the final numbers.
PW Live, a preparation portal, projects the General shortlist at 185 to 195 out of 300 based on historical trends. OBC candidates sit at 175 to 182, EWS at 172 to 178, SC at 155 to 162, and ST at 140 to 148 in that same projection. These bands are estimates, not official thresholds, and the only source of truth will be UPPRPB’s PDF on the day of release.
The published cut-offs from the past three cycles sit at very different levels, the cycle-by-cycle pattern the projection tries to capture. The most recent published cut-offs, for the 2024 cycle released on 21 November 2024, ran considerably higher than the current projections suggest. The 2020 cycle cut-offs sat at the lower end, and the 2018 cycle landed closer to 2024 than to 2020 with one of the older-format qualifications. All three are measured on the same 300-mark scale that the 2026 exam used, so the figures translate directly.
| Category | 2018 (out of 300) | 2020 (out of 300) | 2024 (out of 300) |
|---|---|---|---|
| General (Unreserved) | 225.03288 | 185.3465 | 225.75 |
| OBC | 216.74240 | 172.3272 | 216.58 |
| SC | 187.99655 | 145.3909 | 196.17 |
| ST | 153.31172 | 114.1932 | 170.03 |
| EWS | Not separately stated | Not separately stated | 209.26 |
What the Result PDF Will Carry
The result PDF hosted on the official recruitment board portal lists qualified roll numbers along with the cut-off marks for each category in a single document. It carries the candidate’s name, registration number, and category, plus the marks obtained in the written examination. UPPRPB publishes the list in five parts: General, EWS, OBC, SC, and ST. The categories that qualify for the next stage are set by the cut-off marks printed at the bottom of each section. The portal also hosts the qualifying-status notice that candidates cross-check against their own roll numbers.
Candidates reach the document through a short navigation on the portal. They open the homepage, click on the result notice once UPPRPB activates it, enter their registration or roll number, and submit to view the scorecard. Saving the PDF and printing a copy is the recommended next step, since the same document is checked again at the document-verification stage.
- Visit the official UP Police recruitment portal.
- Click on the ‘UP Police Constable Result 2026’ notice once it appears on the homepage.
- Enter the registration number or roll number along with any captcha displayed on the login page.
- Submit and view the scorecard, including the qualifying status and category-wise cut-off.
- Download and print the result PDF; the same document is required at Document Verification.
After the Merit List Drops
Document Verification is the next stop for candidates whose roll numbers appear in the result PDF. UPPRPB’s verification panel checks the original marks cards, age proof, caste certificate (where claimed), and domicile certificate against the entries in the application. The Physical Standards Test runs in parallel, with measurements of height and chest checked against the category-wise minima published in the December 2025 notification. Candidates who fail either the document check or the PST are struck off the next list.
Those who clear DV and PST enter the Physical Efficiency Test, the timed running stage that the Board uses to confirm endurance. Male candidates run 4.8 km in 25 minutes; female candidates run 2.4 km in 14 minutes. Both time limits are absolute, with no negative marking but a strict pass criterion.
Once PET passes are filed, the Board draws up the final consolidated merit list combining the written marks and the physical clearance status. Selected candidates are then scheduled for training, with a nine-month programme that starts with a one-month foundation course on law and procedure, followed by eight months of advanced training. Training covers investigation, forensics, and crowd control across districts in Uttar Pradesh, and on completion the constables are posted to police stations across the state.
