The Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC) announced the results of the CSS 2025 examination, with a success rate of only 2.67 per cent.
A total of 12,792 candidates appeared in the examination, but only 355 managed to pass the written stage. The commission has recommended 170 candidates for appointment, including 84 men and 86 women.
According to the results, Asid Rafiq secured the first position, followed by Muhammad Mohsin Khalid in second place and Tariq Hafeez in third.
The top 30 position holders have been allocated to the Pakistan Administrative Service and the Police Service, while none were placed in the Foreign Service.
Among the top 30 candidates, 23 belong to Punjab, while two each are from Sindh and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and three are from Balochistan.
The results were issued after a delay, as the commission had earlier stated that the final outcome would be released in April 2026 due to pending decisions on vacancies.
The CSS 2025 examinations were held last year, while interviews have already been completed. The written examination results were announced on 22 August 2025, with a pass rate of 2.77 per cent.
