UPSC Prelims 2025 Result Date: When was result released in the past?
UPSC CSE Prelims 2025 Result LIVE
According to media reports, over 10 lakh candidates appeared for the UPSC CSE Prelims 2025, competing for just 979 vacancies advertised this year. Historically, the number of candidates shortlisted for the Mains round is around 12 to 14 times the number of available vacancies. Based on this estimate, approximately 13,000 to 14,000 candidates are likely to clear the prelims stage this year and qualify for the mains exam, which is scheduled for later this year.
To estimate when the UPSC might declare the CSE Prelims 2025 result, here's a look at previous years' result timelines gives some clarity. Below is an analysis of the time gap between the Prelims exam date and the result declaration over the past five years:
In three out of the last five years (2024, 2023, and 2022), the UPSC declared the results within 15 to 17 days after the Prelims exam.
In 2021 and 2020, the results were declared slightly later, taking 19 days, likely due to pandemic-related delays and administrative adjustments.
The average result announcement time over these five years is around 17 days post-exam.
Given the observed pattern, if UPSC follows its typical timeline, the CSE Prelims 2025 result is expected to be declared within 15 to 17 days after the exam. Since the Prelims was conducted on May 25, 2025, the result is likely to be announced between June 9 and June 15, 2025.

However, it is important to note that UPSC does not pre-announce the result date, and once announced it would be available as a PDF on the official website.
What happens after the UPSC CSE prelims result is announced?
Candidates who qualify the Prelims will have to start preparing for the Civil Services Mains Examination. Mains is the the second stage of the UPSC CSE, and is a descriptive written exam spread over several papers. This year the UPSC CSE Mains 2025 is scheduled to be held on August 22. After qualifying this round, candidates reach the final round — the Personality Test or Interview.
