Short answer: Andhra Pradesh Postal Circle published the combined merit list (marks) of the LGO Examination 2026 for PA/SA on 6 November 2026 (letter No. RE/3-5/R/2026). It shows the Paper-I and DEST marks of 1,486 PM/MG/MTS officials (Annexure-I) and 224 GDS candidates (Annexure-II). This is a marks list, not a new selection list.
This page explains what the official list contains, how to find your marks and what each remark means. Everything here is read from the official AP Circle PDF on the India Post Recruitment & Results page. We do not copy candidate names or roll numbers here, so please check your own line in the PDF.
When was the AP Circle PA/SA marks list 2026 released?
Short answer: On 06.11.2026. The Assistant Director (Recruitment), Office of the Chief Postmaster General, Andhra Pradesh Circle, Vijayawada issued letter No. RE/3-5/R/2026 that day. It covers the LDCE / Competitive Examination (LGO Examination 2026) for the vacancy year 2026, held on 28.06.2026, and the DEST held on 02.08.2026.
The letter was sent to the Postmasters General of Vijayawada and Visakhapatnam Regions and the Directors of Postal Services of Kurnool and Guntur-Amaravathi Regions. It asked CEPT, Bengaluru to host the list on the departmental website under Employee Corner, Recruitment & Results. The 46-page PDF is a scanned document, so it can take a while to open on a phone.
Who is included in the AP PA/SA combined merit list?
Short answer: Two groups. Annexure-I lists PM / MG / MTS officials who appeared for PA/SA, and Annexure-II lists GDS candidates. The last serial number is 1,486 in Annexure-I (39 pages) and 224 in Annexure-II (6 pages). Both lists start with the highest Paper-I marks.
| Annexure | Who is listed | Names in the list | Highest Paper-I marks shown |
|---|---|---|---|
| Annexure-I | PM / MG / MTS officials to PA/SA | 1,486 | 85 |
| Annexure-II | GDS to PA/SA | 224 | 75 |
The covering letter says the list is published under Para 19 (vi) of the Standard Operating Procedure for departmental examinations (Directorate letter No. A 34012/02/2022-DE dated 11.08.2022). It also notes an exception for provisionally recommended candidates, as per Directorate guidelines dated 17.05.2023, 22.09.2023 and 04.03.2024. The letter does not give the maximum marks, so we have not shown percentages.
How do I check my PA/SA marks in the AP Circle list?
Short answer: Open the official PDF from the India Post Recruitment & Results page, go to Annexure-I if you are a Postman, Mail Guard or MTS, or Annexure-II if you are a GDS, and find your hall permit or roll number. Your Paper-I marks, DEST marks and remark are on the same line.
- Open the India Post Recruitment & Results page.
- Find the entry "AP Circle – Combined Merit List (Marks) of the LDCE/CE ... to PA/SA cadre for the vacancy year 2026", dated 06/11/2026, or use the direct PDF link.
- Choose your annexure: Annexure-I (PM/MG/MTS) starts on page 2; Annexure-II (GDS) is the last 6 pages.
- The list is not in name order, so search by your hall permit or roll number. On a phone, zoom in, because the pages are scanned sideways.
- Note your Paper-I marks, DEST marks and the remark. If anything looks wrong, raise it through your division office.

What does each column and remark in the list mean?
Short answer: Each line shows your hall permit or roll number, name, date of entry (Annexure-I) or date of birth (Annexure-II), category, Paper-I marks, DEST marks, division and region, and a remark. The remarks used in the list include "Qualified in DEST", "Not Qualified for DEST", "Absent" and "Roll No. Multiple / Wrongly Bubbled".
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Hall Permit / Roll Number | Your exam number |
| Date of Entry / Date of Birth | Annexure-I shows date of entry; Annexure-II shows date of birth |
| Category | UR, SC, ST, OBC or EWS |
| PAPER-I | Your Paper-I marks |
| DEST | Your Data Entry Skill Test marks |
| Division / Unit and Region | Your working division and region |
| Remarks | DEST status, Absent, or an answer-sheet bubbling error |
Rows with the remark "Roll No. Multiple / Wrongly Bubbled" show 0 in the Paper-I column. That is a reminder to bubble your roll number carefully on the answer sheet in the next exam. The remark column is the official wording; for questions about your own case, ask your division office.
Is this the AP Circle PA/SA result or a selection list?
Short answer: No, it is a marks list. The 6 November letter publishes the combined marks "for information of all the concerned". It does not announce selections or division allotments. For those, look for AP Circle's separate result orders for this exam on the same India Post page.
So if you are looking for whether you got PA/SA, check the AP Circle result orders for the LGO Examination 2026 on the Recruitment & Results page. Use this marks list to see exactly where you stand and how far you were from the top scores.
How can I prepare better for the next PA/SA (LGO) exam?
Short answer: Paper-I marks set your place in this list, and you also need to clear the DEST. Practise past Paper-I questions by topic, revise the Postal Manual volumes, and practise typing on the official DEST tool well before the exam.
- Solve the PA/SA exam 2026 question papers and answer keys (all circles).
- Revise with the Postal Manual Volume VI Part 1 MCQs.
- Practise questions by topic with topic-wise previous year questions for LGO.
- Train for the typing test with the DEST typing test practice tool.
- See where PA/SA fits in the GDS to MTS, Postman and PA/SA promotion path.
