Rajasthan LDC Result 2026: 31,800 Candidates Shortlisted for Typing Test

The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board (RSSB) officially declared the ldc result 2026 rajasthan on September 28, 2026. This recruitment drive is designed to fill 10,644 vacancies for Lower Division Clerk (LDC), Clerk Grade-II, and Junior Assistant positions across various state departments [1].

Selection Funnel: From 5.81 Lakh Applicants to Shortlist

The competition for these government posts was intense, with a steep reduction in candidates at each stage of the selection process. According to board data, 5.81 lakh candidates applied for the recruitment, and 4.45 lakh appeared for the written examination conducted on July 5, 2026 [2].

To qualify for consideration, candidates were required to score a minimum of 40% in each of the two question papers, with a 5% relaxation provided for SC and ST candidates. While approximately 2.50 lakh candidates met this qualifying threshold, the board applied a merit-based filter to narrow the field further [2].

Ultimately, the RSSB has shortlisted 31,800 candidates for the typing test. This figure represents exactly three times the total number of available vacancies, ensuring a competitive pool for the final selection phase [2].

Answer Key and Score Calculation

To assist candidates in determining their final marks, the RSSB released the final answer key and response sheets for both Paper 1 and Paper 2 on September 29, 2026 [1]. These documents are essential for verifying results, as the final results were prepared on the basis of this key.

Candidates can access these documents via the official RSSB portal at rssb.rajasthan.gov.in by navigating to the "Candidate Corner" and selecting the LDC Grade II / Junior Assistant answer key link [1].

Next Steps: Typing Test and Final Appointment

It is important for candidates to note that being shortlisted in the initial result is a qualification for the skill test, not a final appointment. The recruitment follows a specific sequence of verification and testing.

Initial Result/Shortlist	Declared (September 28, 2026)

The typing test is expected to commence toward the end of December 2026, though the exact dates will be confirmed through an official notification [2]. Shortlisted candidates should regularly monitor the RSSB website for the official schedule and their specific test dates.
