The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has officially announced the results for the written examination conducted for the recruitment of Assistant Provident Fund Commissioners (APFC) in the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). This marks a critical milestone in the selection process for one of the most coveted Group ‘A’ posts under the Ministry of Labour and Employment.
Key Details of the UPSC EPFO APFC Recruitment 2025
The recruitment drive aims to fill a total of 74 vacancies as advertised under Advertisement No. 52/2025. The decisive Combined Recruitment Test (CRT) was held on November 29, 2025. The commission has now provisionally shortlisted candidates for the subsequent interview stage based solely on their performance in this written screening test.
The list of shortlisted candidates has been published in a PDF format on the UPSC website. Aspirants must locate their roll numbers in this list to confirm their provisional qualification for the interview round.
Eligibility Verification: The Final Hurdle Before Interview
Being shortlisted is not a final guarantee for an interview call. UPSC has made it clear that only those candidates who fully satisfy all the prescribed eligibility conditions will be summoned for the interview.
This involves a rigorous verification process of multiple parameters, including:
- Educational qualifications
- Age limit as per category
- Category certificates (SC/ST/OBC/EWS etc.)
- Other statutory requirements mentioned in the recruitment rules
Any discrepancy found during this document verification will lead to disqualification, irrespective of the candidate's score in the written exam. This strict approach is a standard UPSC practice to uphold the integrity and fairness of the recruitment process.
