Like several other KPSC statewide posts this season, the SBCID eligibility list has been drawn up from the Common Preliminary Examination (OMR Test) conducted on 02-05-2026, 16-05-2026, and 06-06-2026. Candidates who cleared the qualifying standard in this preliminary round now find their register numbers on the list and are eligible to sit for the Category-wise Main Examination for Special Branch Assistant.

CATEGORY NUMBER: 017/2025

• SPECIAL BRANCH ASSISTANT – S B C I D – ( CAT. NO. 017/2025) STATEWIDE    in Kerala Police Service.

A point worth repeating for every KPSC shortlist: the register numbers are printed strictly in numerical/ascending order in the PDF. This ordering has nothing to do with a candidate’s marks or rank — so don’t read anything into where your number appears on the page.

1. Head to the official portal: www.keralapsc.gov.in
2. Look under Notifications for Eligibility List No. 13/2026/ER IV or search by Category No. 017/2025.

4. You can also confirm your status by signing in to your One Time Registration (OTR) profile on the KPSC Thulasi portal.

Why Being Shortlisted Doesn’t Mean You’ve Cleared the Exam

This is a provisional eligibility list, not a final selection. A few things to keep in mind:

• Inclusion here only qualifies you to appear for the Main Examination — it does not by itself place you on the final Ranked List.
• The marks you scored in the Preliminary OMR Test are used solely to decide eligibility for the main exam and carry no weight in the eventual ranking.
• If a candidate is found to have submitted defective or incorrect documents at a later stage, KPSC reserves the right to reject the candidature even after this stage.
• As with other Kerala PSC eligibility lists, qualifying marks are typically relaxed for reserved communities and differently-abled candidates to ensure adequate representation — such candidates will need to substantiate their claim with valid certificates during OTR verification if they progress further.

What Should Kerala PSC SBCID-Shortlisted Candidates Do Next?

• Begin preparing for the Main Examination syllabus specific to Special Branch Assistant (Kerala Police Service).
• Watch the official KPSC website and your OTR profile/inbox for the Main Exam date and hall ticket — these are usually announced separately and closer to the exam.
• If you want to request rechecking of your OMR answer script or a photocopy of your OMR sheet, this can typically be done through your OTR profile within a limited window (usually 15 days) from the date the list is uploaded — check the exact deadline and fee on the official notification PDF, as it can vary slightly by category.
• Keep your community, EWS, or disability certificates ready in case you’re asked to produce them later in the selection process.
