2. Vacancy & Shortlist Breakdown
Total Shortlisted: 805 candidates, split by category:
| Category | Shortlisted Candidates |
|---|---|
| Male candidates (Sub-Inspector UB/AB and Sergeant) | 736 |

3. Cut-Off Marks
| Category | Post | Cut-Off Marks |
|---|---|---|
| Unreserved (UR) | Sub-Inspector/Sergeant (Male) | 129 |
| Unreserved (UR) | Sub-Inspectress (Female) | 118 |
Important note on cut-off accuracy: The same UR cut-off of 129 applies across all three male-category posts — SI (UB), SI (AB), and Sergeant. However, at the time of writing, the exact category-wise cut-off figures for reserved categories (SC/ST/OBC) show minor variation across different sources tracking this update. Treat the UR figures above as reliable, but cross-check reserved-category cut-offs directly against the official cut-off PDF published alongside the result.
4. How to Check Your Result
- Visit the official website: wbpolice.gov.in or prb.wb.gov.in
- In the notice/recruitment section, look for the entry referencing the “Final Combined Competitive Examination result for SI (UB), SI (AB) and Sergeant in Kolkata Police – 2023.”
- Click the relevant link for your category:
- The merit list PDF opens directly in your browser.
- Press Ctrl+F (or use your PDF reader’s search function) and type your application serial number to locate your entry instantly.
- Download and save a copy. Take a printout too — you will likely need it at the Personality Test verification desk.
Important — check the format before you search: Unlike earlier stages of this recruitment, this final written result has been issued as a plain shortlist PDF, containing only Serial Number and Name — it is not an individual scorecard showing your actual marks. If you want to know the qualifying cut-off for your category, refer to the separate cut-off marks PDF released alongside the result, not the shortlist itself.
5. What Happens Next: The Personality Test
Being on this shortlist is a significant step, but it is not the final selection. Here’s what to expect:
- Personality Test (Interview): The next and final evaluation round. WBPRB will issue a separate call letter specifying the date, reporting time, and venue.
- Document Verification: Typically conducted around the time of the Personality Test. Keep all your original certificates, mark sheets, ID proof, and category certificates ready and easily accessible.
- Final Merit List: Based on your combined FCCE (written) marks plus Personality Test marks — so your already-banked written score continues to matter even after this shortlist stage.
Keep checking the official WBPRB recruitment section regularly over the coming weeks for the Personality Test schedule.
