The RSMSSB Livestock Assistant (also called “Pashudhan Sahayak”) exam 2025 was held on 13 June 2025 for thousands of aspirants across Rajasthan.
As part of the recruitment process, the board will declare (or has declared) the category-wise cut-off marks, which represent the minimum score required in the written exam to qualify for further selection stages.
However, at the time of writing, the official cut-off PDF for 2025 does not appear fully published or accessible for all categories—many sources provide expected figures rather than fully verified ones.

Category-Wise Cut Off: What’s Known
While the official 2025 cut-off data is yet to be fully confirmed, some career portals list expected cut-offs or preliminary figures. For example:
From one source:
| Category | Expected Cut-Off* |
|---|---|
| General (UR) | ~ 147.51 |
| SC | ~ 135.50 |
| ST | ~ 120.43 |
| OBC | ~ 144.51 |
* These are expected / approximate based on early data — not fully confirmed official marks.
To put this in context, here are what previous years’ cut-offs looked like:
2018 (Non-TSP Areas)
General: ~ 147.51
Female (Gen): ~ 128.07
SC: ~ 135.50
ST: ~ 120.43
OBC: ~ 144.51
2018 (TSP Areas)
General: ~ 117.55
SC: ~ 72.29
ST: ~ 84.34
From this, we can infer that the 2025 cut-off figures are likely to follow a similar pattern (General highest, ST the lowest, OBC slightly below General). The expected ~147 mark for UR aligns with earlier years.
How to Check the Official Cut Off
When RSMSSB publishes the official cut-off, here is how you can access it:
Visit the official site: rssb.rajasthan.gov.in
Go to the “Results” or “Final Recommendation & Cut Off Marks” section.
Look for the link titled “LiveStock Assistant 2025: Final Recommendation and Cut Off Marks” (or similar).
Download the PDF / view the list. Ensure you check for both TSP (Tribal Sub-Plan) and Non-TSP region cut-offs if applicable.
Compare your score with your category’s cut-off to see if you qualify for the next stage (document verification, merit list etc.).
Why Cut-Off Marks Vary & What Affects Them
Several factors influence the cut-off for an exam like this:
Number of applicants: More candidates → potentially higher cut-off.
Number of vacancies: More vacancies → cut-off may be slightly lower (all else equal).
Exam difficulty level: If paper is easier → more high scores → cut-off tends to be higher. If harder → cut-off slightly lower.
Category reservation / region: Differences between TSP vs Non-TSP, female vs male, region quotas affect cut-off.
Previous years’ trends: Boards often consider historical data as a benchmark when deciding cut-offs.
What Candidates Should Do Now
Check your raw score: Once result is out, compare your marks with expected / previous years’ cut-offs to estimate your standing.
Stay watchful: Look out for the merit list / selected list / document verification schedule after cut-off release.
Prepare documents: If you clear the cut-off, you may be called for documentation — ensure caste certificate, training certificate, identity proof are ready.
Don’t assume based solely on expected cut-off: Since expected data may differ slightly from official, treat your status as provisional until board confirms.
Plan for next steps: If you’ve cleared the cut-off (or are close), start preparing for whatever comes next in the process (verification or interview) depending on the selection flow.
Learn from the cut-off: If you missed the cut-off by a margin, analyse weak sections, time management, and be ready for future recruitment.
