The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) is preparing to release the results for its 71st Civil Services Preliminary Examination 2025. Students and young adults who appeared for the exam can expect the results to be announced on the official BPSC website, bpsc.bihar.gov.in, during the second week of October 2025.
This examination serves as the initial screening for candidates aspiring to various administrative positions within the Bihar state government. The preliminary results determine eligibility for the subsequent stage, the BPSC Main Examination. An official notification confirming the precise date and time of the result announcement is still pending from the Commission.
The 71st BPSC Civil Services Preliminary Examination took place on September 13, 2025 . Based on historical data, the Commission typically publishes preliminary results within 30 to 45 days after the examination date. This pattern suggests a release by the second week of October. The results will be accessible online as a PDF document, eliminating the need for candidates to use login credentials for download.
Prior to the results, BPSC had issued a provisional answer key for the preliminary exam. Candidates were given an opportunity to raise objections to this key. The Commission reviews these objections, and both the final answer key and the preliminary results are declared simultaneously, reflecting any necessary adjustments from the objection review process.
