⚠ Why Are Some Results Withheld?

Some candidates’ results have been withheld because they did not submit the Rs. 250/- Treasury Receipt (TR) — the exam fee for MPT.

To clear their status, these candidates must:

Submit a representation under Rule 17(1) of CSS Rules 2019
Attach the original Rs. 250/- TR
Pay a representation fee of Rs. 500/-
Ensure the TR was deposited before the online application deadline

This step is necessary to validate their participation in the MPT.

📅 Next Steps for Qualified Candidates

Candidates who passed the MPT must now proceed with the CSS 2026 Written Exam application process.

📝 Online Application Schedule

Apply Online: 8 December to 22 December 2025
