English Language Skills	20	20 Marks

Is there a penalty or negative marking in the MGVCL CBT examinations?

The allocation of candidates to specific power distribution or transmission companies is decided after the final results are declared. It is based entirely on your rank in the Tier-2 merit list and the preferences you select during the online application process.
