Worth preparing alongside

We cannot line India Post Postal Assistant/Sorting Assistant up against other exams yet

This does not mean India Post Postal Assistant/Sorting Assistant shares nothing with the exams you are preparing for — only that we have not loaded a chapter-by-chapter syllabus we can compare against, so we will not guess. We compare 0 exams whose official syllabus we have traced to the conducting body, and this one is not among them yet.

Job profile & salary

Vacancy Note

The main SSC CGL 2026 notice did not provide a reliable final post-specific PA/SA vacancy total. Allocation must be checked against SSC's later vacancy and option-preference updates.

Cutoffs

SSC CGL qualifying and final cut-offs plus post/category vacancy allocation apply. A generic India Post PA/SA cut-off would be misleading.

Previous-year papers
Use verified SSC CGL papers and answer keys; there is no separate modern PA/SA paper for this route.
