UPSC 2025 results are out; top 10 ranks, women shine
UPSC just dropped the 2025 Civil Services results way ahead of schedule, 11 weeks before the 2026 prelims.
Anuj Agnihotri, an MBBS graduate from AIIMS Jodhpur and a DANICS officer, grabbed all-India rank one.
The top 10 list also shines with three women: Rajeshwari Suve M. at two, Zinnia Aurora at six, and Astha Jain is among the top 10.
Nearly 1 million people applied
This early announcement is a big relief for candidates who used to stress over late results.
Nearly 1 million people applied; about 5.77 lakh (576,793) candidates appeared — roughly 61% of applicants.
In the end, 958 candidates made it to services like IAS and IPS, plus there is a reserve list for backup.
With results out sooner, everyone gets more time to prepare for their new roles or try again if needed.
