BIS Result 2024: Scores Out, But No Clarity on Shortlist Leaves Candidates Confused!

The Bureau of Indian Standards has recently announced the BIS Result 2024 for Section Officer (SO) and Assistant Section Officer (ASO) posts. While the results have been released in the form of a PDF detailing the scores of all participants, candidates are now confused with uncertainty regarding their selection status for the next stage of the recruitment process.

Scores Announced, But What’s The Qualifying Status?

The published PDF of BIS Result 2024 provides transparency in terms of individual performance, allowing candidates to see their scores. However, it does not indicate which candidates have been shortlisted for the next stage of the selection process. This has left most applicants confused, as they are unsure whether their scores meet the cutoff or if they qualify for the next phase.

At various platforms, candidates are raising their queries and concerns. Many are questioning the criteria for shortlisting and seeking clarification from BIS. The absence of clear instructions or a direct list of shortlisted candidates has only added to their anxiety.

What Could Be the Cause of Confusion?

The confusion regarding the BIS Result 2024 has risen because of the factors discussed below.

• Lack of Cut Off Information: BIS has not provided details about the minimum qualifying marks required for shortlisting in the result PDF. Only in the notification PDF it has been stated that candidates will be required to secure at least 50 % marks in the concerned discipline and also at least 50% marks in aggregate out of the total maximum marks in the online examination.
• No Shortlist Mentioned: The result document includes scores but does not specify if the candidate is selected for the next stage.

What’s Next for BIS?

To address the growing concerns, BIS is expected to release a follow-up notification or an official communication clarifying the shortlisting process. Clear instructions or a separate list of shortlisted candidates will likely resolve the ongoing confusion. BIS must act promptly to provide a clear resolution and ensure candidates are well-informed about the next steps in the selection process.
