Did You Know?
India Post GDS selection is based on Class 10 marks, with no written exam. This means candidates with lower marks may miss out even without an entrance test. If you don’t make the GDS merit list, don’t let one recruitment decide your career. Consider an Online Degree from a UGC-approved university as a Plan B and continue building your qualifications.

With CollegeVidya, you can compare recognised online programmes, universities, fees and specialisations with guidance from counsellors.

GDS doesn’t work out? Keep your career moving with a strong Plan B.

Unlike most recruitment exams, GDS 2026 selection will not involve a written test. Instead, India Post will prepare a system-generated merit list based on candidates' Class 10 marks or grades, converted into marks and calculated up to four decimal places for precision.
