The Indian Army’s Short Service Commission (SSC) Technical (Tech) entries for both men and women are highly sought-after opportunities for engineering graduates aspiring to serve as officers. The SSC Tech 64 for men and SSCW Tech 35 for women are scheduled for the April 2025 course.
Each year, the Indian Army releases the cutoff marks for the respective engineering streams to shortlist candidates for the SSB interview stage. Below are the detailed cutoff percentages for both SSC Tech 64 (Men) and SSCW Tech 35 (Women).
SSC Tech 64 (Men) Cut Off Marks
The cutoff marks for SSC Tech 64 (Men) are based on cumulative marks up to the final semester for passed candidates and up to the sixth semester for candidates appearing in their final year/semester. Here are the cutoffs for different engineering streams:
| S. No | Engineering Streams | Cut Off % |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Civil | 60% |
| 2 | Computer Science | 73% |
| 3 | Electrical | 60% |
| 4 | Electronics | 60% |
| 5 | Mechanical | 60% |
| 6 | Misc Engineering Streams | 60% |
SSCW Tech 35 (Women) Cut Off Marks
Similarly, the SSCW Tech 35 (Women) course cutoffs for April 2025 also specify the cumulative marks required up to the final semester for passed candidates and up to the sixth semester for final-year candidates. Here are the cutoffs for the different engineering streams:
| S. No | Engineering Streams | Cut Off % |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Civil | 60% |
| 2 | Computer Science | 86% |
| 3 | Electrical | 76% |
| 4 | Electronics | 76% |
| 5 | Mechanical | 60% |
Key Points to Remember
- Eligibility for Shortlisting: The shortlisting process for both SSC Tech 64 (Men) and SSCW Tech 35 (Women) is done based on the percentage of marks obtained in the qualifying degree. For final-year/semester candidates, cumulative marks up to a specified semester are considered for shortlisting.
- Passed Candidates: Cumulative percentage up to the final semester/year.
- Final Year Candidates: Cumulative marks up to the sixth semester for engineering degree courses.
- Engineering Streams: The cutoff percentages are based on the specific engineering streams as per the official Indian Army guidelines.
The SSC Tech 64 and SSCW Tech 35 cutoffs highlight the competitiveness of the selection process, particularly in streams such as Computer Science for women, where the cutoff has reached 86%. Candidates meeting the required cutoffs can proceed to the next stage, which involves the SSB interview. This provides them with an excellent opportunity to serve the nation as officers in the Indian Army.
