What does each CMS result tell you?

Written result

A PDF of roll numbers qualified for the Interview/Personality Test, with a name-wise list uploaded the same day. Their candidature is provisional, and original certificates of age, education, community and disability must be produced at the Personality Test. In CMS 2025, written-stage standards were subject to a minimum of 25% marks in each paper (10% for PwBD candidates).

Final result

Separate merit lists for Category-I (Medical Officers in the GDMO Sub-cadre of the Central Health Service, 864 vacancies in 2026) and Category-II (Assistant Divisional Medical Officer in the Railways, 450; GDMO in NDMC, 14; GDMO Grade-II in MCD, 30). It is based on the written examination (500 marks) followed by the Personality Test (100 marks). Appointment follows the order of merit and the preferences given; a candidate who indicates no preference is not considered for service allocation. For CMS 2025, the final result recommended 363 candidates in Category-I and 449 in Category-II, with a consolidated Category-II reserve list of 60.

How are ties broken?

Marks are rounded off to two decimal digits at every stage, and the rounded marks are used to resolve ties:

1. Higher marks in the written total.
2. If equal, the candidate senior in age.
3. If the date of birth is also the same, the candidate who completed the internship earlier.
4. Any remaining tie is resolved at the Commission's discretion.

When are marks available?

The 1 September 2026 result notice says mark-sheets are uploaded after the final result and remain online for 30 days, opened with roll number and date of birth. Printed copies are sent on request with a self-addressed stamped envelope, if asked within 30 days of the marks going online. For CMS 2025, the cut-off marks went up on 26 December 2025 and the marks of recommended candidates on 30 December 2025.

What happens after the final result?

• Pre-appointment checks: appointment depends on the Government being satisfied about character and antecedents, on completion of the compulsory rotating internship, and on a physical examination.
• Provisional candidates: in CMS 2025, the candidature of 353 recommended candidates was provisional, and they had six months from the final result to submit original documents.
• Reserve list: the CMS 2025 reserve list was uploaded on 25 June 2026. Details of interviewed but non-recommended candidates who consented go on the PRATIBHA Setu portal only after the reserve list is utilised.
