๐ซ Cancellation of Applications (Non-Payment of Fees)
For candidates belonging to the General Category, paying the examination fee was mandatory. The board has identified candidates who confirmed their online application but failed to pay the fees within the time limit. Consequently, these applications have been cancelled.
What if you paid the fee but your name is on the list?
If your application has been cancelled despite having paid the fee, you have a chance to rectify this. You must visit the GPRB office in person with the following documents:
- Original Fee Payment Receipt.
- Necessary Proofs (Application printout, ID proof).
Submission Details:
- Deadline: 06/01/2026 (Monday) by 05:00 PM.
- Address: Gujarat Police Recruitment Board, Bungalow No. G-12, Opposite Sarita Udyan, Sector-9, Gandhinagar – 382007.
Note: Representations sent via post/courier or received after the deadline will NOT be considered.
๐ Merging of PSI and LRD Applications
Many candidates applied separately for the PSI Cadre and LRD Cadre instead of selecting the “BOTH” option. To streamline the process and ensure you don’t have to appear for the Physical Test twice, the board has decided to merge these applications.
- Your applications for PSI and LRD have been combined for the purpose of the Physical Test.
- Call Letter Status: The Physical Test Call Letter will be issued on your PSI Confirmation Number.
- You will undergo the physical test only once, and the score will be valid for both cadres.
๐ Rules for Multiple/Duplicate Applications
If a candidate has submitted more than one application, the board has applied specific rules to determine which application remains valid and which ones are cancelled. Please refer to the table below to understand the logic:
| Sr. No. | Application Scenario | Action Taken by Board |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Multiple applications in ‘BOTH’ option | Last ‘BOTH’ application is Valid. Others Cancelled. |
| 2 | Multiple applications in ‘PSI’ only | Last ‘PSI’ application is Valid. Others Cancelled. |
| 3 | Multiple applications in ‘LRD’ only | Last ‘LRD’ application is Valid. Others Cancelled. |
| 4 | Applications in BOTH + PSI (One or more each) | Last ‘BOTH’ application is Valid. Others Cancelled. |
| 5 | Applications in BOTH + LRD (One or more each) | Last ‘BOTH’ application is Valid. Others Cancelled. |
| 6 | Applications in BOTH + PSI + LRD (One or more each) | Last ‘BOTH’ application is Valid. Others Cancelled. |
| 7 | One application in PSI + One application in LRD | Both applications Merged. Call letter issued on PSI Confirmation Number. |
| 8 | Multiple applications in PSI + Multiple applications in LRD | Last PSI application and Last LRD application Merged. Others cancelled. Call letter issued on PSI Confirmation Number. |
