Category-wise expected cutoff (indicative)

Category	Expected cutoff (indicative)
General	65-72 marks out of 100
EWS	62-68 marks out of 100
OBC	60-66 marks out of 100
SC	55-62 marks out of 100
ST	50-58 marks out of 100
PwD	45-52 marks out of 100

General category cutoffs typically run 5-10 marks higher than OBC and 10-15 marks above SC/ST categories. The gap reflects reservation policy implementation in Union Territory recruitment.
Cutoffs fluctuate based on vacancy numbers, application volume, and exam difficulty level. Years with higher vacancies or tougher question papers see cutoffs drop by 3-5 marks across categories.
Island-specific recruitment often sees ST cutoffs compressed toward lower qualification thresholds given demographic composition; scoring above 60 marks generally ensures competitive standing for reserved categories while General candidates should target 70+ for reasonable selection probability.
