How selection works
1) Merit list from Class 10 marks
India Post prepares the list using Class 10 marks only. Marks can be calculated up to 4 decimal places.
If your board gives grades, then marks are calculated using: Marks = Grade Point × 9.5
A1=10, A2=9, B1=8, B2=7, C1=6, C2=5, D=4 (each multiplied by 9.5).
2) If marks are same
If two candidates have equal marks, then older candidate is given preference first. If still same, then preference is given using the category + gender order mentioned in your details.
3) Document Verification
Shortlisted candidates must attend DV at the divisional head office with all required documents.
4) Final joining
After DV is clear, a provisional engagement letter is given. Then final joining is confirmed after completing required steps.
What to do If your name is not in the 1st merit list?
If your name is not in the first list, do not lose hope more merit lists can come later if seats are still vacant. Sometimes India Post releases more lists if seats remain empty. So keep checking the official website for the next merit list updates.
