The India Post had earlier released the second merit list on April 10, 2026. However, the results for Assam, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal were withheld due to the enforcement of the Model Code of Conduct during the election period. With the completion of the electoral process, aspirants from these states are now anticipating the publication of the pending results along with the third merit list covering the remaining postal circles.
The recruitment campaign includes a total of 28,636 vacancies across multiple positions, including Rural Postal Sevak (GDS), Branch Postmaster, and Assistant Branch Postmaster roles. The selection process remains highly competitive as candidates continue to await circle-wise merit list updates.
To access the India Post GDS 3rd merit list 2026, candidates will need to visit the official India Post recruitment portal and navigate to the recruitment section available on the homepage. From there, applicants are required to proceed to the online GDS recruitment section and enter the candidate portal. The shortlisted candidates section for Schedule-1, January 2026, will display the available merit lists. Candidates must then select their respective postal circle or state and download the merit list PDF. The result can be verified using the seven-digit registration number through the search function.
Authorities have advised candidates to regularly monitor official updates as the third merit list and pending state results are expected to be released in a phased manner. The announcement is a crucial step in finalising appointments across thousands of postal units nationwide, marking a significant milestone in India Post’s large-scale recruitment exercise.
