Bureau of Indian Standards has recently announced the BIS Result 2024 for Section Officer (SO) and Assistant Section Officer (ASO) posts. While the results have been released in the form of a PDF detailing the marks of all the participants, candidates are now confused with uncertainty about their selection status for the next stage of the recruitment process.
Scores declared, but what is the qualifying status?
The published PDF of BIS Result 2024 provides transparency in terms of individual performance, allowing candidates to view their scores. However, it does not indicate which candidates have been shortlisted for the next stage of the selection process. This has left most of the applicants confused, as they are unsure whether their scores are in line with the cutoff or whether they will qualify for the next stage or not.
On various platforms, candidates are raising their questions and concerns. Many are questioning the shortlisting criteria and seeking clarification from BIS. The lack of clear instructions or a direct list of shortlisted candidates has further increased their concern.
What could be the reason for the confusion?
Confusion regarding BIS Result 2024 has increased due to the factors discussed below.
- Lack of cut off information: BIS has not provided details regarding the minimum qualifying marks required for shortlisting in the result PDF. Only in the notification PDF it is stated that candidates will be required to obtain at least 50% marks in the respective discipline and at least 50% marks out of the total maximum marks in the online examination.
- No mention of any shortlist: The result document contains the scores but does not specify whether the candidate has been selected for the next stage or not.
What’s next for BIS?
To address the growing concerns, BIS is expected to issue a follow-up notification or an official communication clarifying the shortlisting process. Clear instructions or a separate list of shortlisted candidates would possibly resolve the ongoing confusion. BIS should take immediate action to provide clear solutions and ensure that candidates are well informed about the next steps in the selection process.
Note: We have addressed the concern regarding BIS Result 2024 on Candidate Grievance Logging and Redressal Mechanism, https://cgrs.ibps.in/, and will continue to provide the latest updates.
