The UP Police sub-inspector (SI) cut-off is the minimum marks the Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board (UPPRPB) sets for each category after a written exam. This page does not quote any cut-off figure because no official figure for the 2026 cycle is confirmed here. Read the board’s own result notice instead.
Quick Answer
The Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board publishes SI cut-off marks, category-wise, in its result and cut-off notice on its official website. No verified 2026 SI cut-off is listed on this page. Treat unofficial lists as unconfirmed until the board’s own PDF shows the same marks.
Direct link: Official UPPRPB website (results and notices). The SI cut-off notice is not confirmed as published for this cycle; check the result and notice sections of this site.

What is the UP Police SI cut-off?
The cut-off is the lowest score at which a candidate stays in the selection process. The Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board (UPPRPB), Lucknow, conducts recruitment for sub-inspectors in Uttar Pradesh Police. It decides who moves to the next stage using the marks announced in its notices.

How do you check the official cut-off step by step?
Follow the same path every time a result is declared. It takes under ten minutes on a mobile phone.
- Open the official UPPRPB website → go to the result section.
- Find the notice for the sub-inspector recruitment you applied to → read the notice title and advertisement details.
- Open the PDF → look for the category-wise marks table.
- Compare your own marks and category with the table → note the next stage named in the notice.
- Save the PDF and its date → use it for later document checks.
Some board PDFs are scanned images and may not open well on a slow connection. Download the file and view it in a PDF reader rather than relying on a browser preview.
What decides the cut-off marks?
The board sets the cut-off after the exam is held, so no website can predict it with certainty. Several factors usually move it, and the board’s notice is the only place that states the final marks.
- Difficulty of the paper: a tougher paper usually lowers the marks needed.
- Number of vacancies: more posts in a category usually let more candidates qualify.
- Category and reservation: each category has its own cut-off in the notice.
- Number of candidates who appeared: a larger pool can push marks up.
These are general patterns, not figures. Use them to understand a result, not to guess your score needed.
If you are X, do Y: a decision table
| If you are | Do this |
|---|---|
| Still preparing, no exam date yet | Read the latest notice and syllabus on the official site, then build a mock-test routine |
| Written the exam, result awaited | Check the official result section only; ignore social media lists |
| Result out, marks near your category’s cut-off | Prepare for the next stage named in the notice immediately |
| Below the cut-off | Study your section-wise performance and plan for the next recruitment |
How should you use a cut-off to plan your preparation?
Use the cut-off as a feedback tool. Take past official cut-off notices from the board’s website, compare them with your mock-test scores in the same category, and set a target above the highest figure you find. This worked example is a method, not a prediction: if your category’s earlier official cut-off was a certain mark and your mock average is below it, your gap is the difference. Close that gap section by section before the next notification.
Mock tests under timed conditions show where marks leak. A focused UP general knowledge course helps with the state-specific part. The UP Special Crash Course covers Uttar Pradesh topics in a short revision plan, and the UPPSC exam guide explains how Uttar Pradesh recruitment exams are organised.

- Mixing up marks of an earlier recruitment cycle with the current one.
- Reading another category’s row in the table.

- Waiting for the cut-off instead of continuing practice.
