Selection Process
- One-Tier Computer-Based Examination: Candidates are assessed through an objective-type test covering the subjects and syllabus prescribed by DSSSB. Applicable negative marking is considered while calculating scores.

The provisional answer key is intended to provide transparency before results are prepared. It should not be treated as the final result or confirmation of selection.
