UP Police Constable Result 2026: The wait for lakhs of candidates who appeared for the Uttar Pradesh Police Constable Recruitment Exam 2026 may soon be over. The Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board (UPPRB) is likely to release the results for the constable recruitment exam in the last week of July. A merit list will be released alongside the results; based on this list, successful candidates will be called for the subsequent stages: Document Verification (DV), Physical Standard Test (PST), and Physical Efficiency Test (PET). This recruitment drive aims to fill 32,679 constable posts in the state police department.

**Result Expected in the Last Week of July**
The UPPRB conducted the written examination for constable recruitment on June 8, 9, and 10, 2026. Following the conclusion of the exam, a provisional answer key was released on June 20, and objections were invited from candidates. The Board is now preparing to release the final results after completing the process of resolving objections and evaluating the answer sheets. Once the results are declared, candidates will be able to view their results and the merit list on the official website, uppbpb.gov.in.

**Recruitment for Over 32,000 Posts**
This recruitment drive is being conducted to fill a total of 32,679 constable posts in the Uttar Pradesh Police. The recruitment process began with the issuance of a notification on December 31, 2025, and online applications commenced on the same day. The deadline for submitting applications and paying the fee was January 30, 2026. Subsequently, a window for application corrections was provided from January 31 to February 3.

The written examination for constable recruitment was conducted in offline OMR mode. The question paper comprised a total of 150 questions, carrying a maximum of 300 marks. Negative marking was also applicable to the examination. 0.5 marks were deducted for every incorrect answer. Consequently, many candidates are now awaiting the results while considering their probable scores and the cutoff.

**Over 21 lakh candidates took the exam**

The number of candidates in this recruitment exam was substantial. Estimates suggest that between 2,192,236 and approximately 24.50 lakh candidates appeared for the test. Due to the massive scale of the examination, it took the board some time to prepare the results. The evaluation process has now reached its final stage.

**What might the category-wise cutoff be?**
The board will release the official cutoff along with the results; however, estimates have been made based on analyses by various competitive exam experts and preparation platforms. For the General (UR) category, the cutoff is likely to range from 185 to 195 marks for male candidates and 180 to 190 marks for female candidates. In the OBC category, the probable cutoff is expected to be between 175 and 185 marks for men and 170 and 180 marks for women. For the Scheduled Caste (SC) category, the probable range is 150 to 160 marks for male candidates and 145 to 155 marks for female candidates. Meanwhile, for the Scheduled Tribe (ST) category, the cutoff is estimated to be between 115 and 125 marks for men and 110 and 120 marks for women; however, the final cutoff will only be clear once the board releases the official results.

**Stages of DV, PST, and PET to follow the results**
Candidates who succeed in the written examination will be called for the next stages. First, Document Verification (DV) will take place. This will be followed by the Physical Standard Test (PST) and then the Physical Efficiency Test (PET). According to media reports, this process is likely to begin on August 17, 2026.

**What is the running distance for the PET?**
The Physical Efficiency Test will be qualifying in nature. For this stage, male candidates must complete a 4.8-kilometer run within 25 minutes, while female candidates must complete a 2.4-kilometer run within 14 minutes. Only those who complete the run within the stipulated time will be considered eligible for the next stage.
