SSC MTS Previous Year Cut Off Trend
SSC MTS Previous year Cut Off
SSC MTS cut-off is one of the most misunderstood topics among aspirants. Many students look at one number and panic, without understanding how SSC actually decides cut-off. This detailed guide explains: Theory behind SSC MTS cut-off, Year-wise cut-off trend (2024 → 2021), State-wise cut-off comparison, Expected SSC MTS Cut Off 2026
SSC MTS Cut Off 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021: Year-Wise and Category-Wise Cut-Off Marks
The SSC MTS Cut Off is released by the Staff Selection Commission for the Multi-Tasking (Non-Technical) Staff and Havaldar examination. Unlike SSC CGL or SSC CHSL, there is no single SSC MTS cut-off applicable to every candidate.
SSC MTS cut-offs may differ according to:
- State or Union Territory
- Candidate’s category
- MTS age group: 18–25 or 18–27 years
- Havaldar CCA and post
- Number of vacancies
- Candidate preferences
- Normalized examination marks
Candidates should therefore compare their marks with the exact cut-off applicable to their year, category, age group, state and post.
Important: Minimum qualifying marks and selection cut-offs are different. Securing the minimum qualifying percentage does not guarantee selection.

SSC MTS Year-Wise Cut-Off Trend
The table below provides an easy comparison of the broad cut-off trend. The 2026 figures represent the range of reported Havaldar CCA cut-offs, while earlier figures represent historical MTS category trends.

*The 2024 ranges above are based on the major CCAs displayed in this article, not every row of the full official annexure.
Use this table only to understand year-wise movement. Do not directly compare MTS state-wise cut-offs with Havaldar CCA-wise cut-offs because they apply to different posts and selection groups.
SSC MTS Safe Score Based on Previous-Year Trends
A “safe score” is a preparation target, not an official cut-off or guarantee of selection.
Category | Suggested Target Score |
|---|---|
UR | 145+ |
OBC | 140+ |
EWS | 138+ |
SC | 130+ |
ST | 120+ |
Candidates should target the highest practical score because actual selection depends on normalization, vacancies, category, state or CCA preference and the performance of other candidates.
Factors Affecting SSC MTS Cut Off
The SSC MTS cut-off changes every year because of:
- Number of announced vacancies
- Total number of candidates
- Difficulty level of the examination
- Normalization across different shifts
- Candidate’s category
- State or Union Territory preference
- MTS age group
- Havaldar CCA preference
- Marks obtained by the last selected candidate
