For third gender (Kinnar/Kothi/Hijra/Transgender) candidates, the physical standards and physical efficiency test criteria will be the same as for Backward Class (BC) candidates.

BPSSC Company Commander Age Limit

BPSSC Company Commander Selection Process
- Selection to the post of Company Commander will be made through a written competitive examination in two phases, followed by a Physical Efficiency Test, as detailed below.
Phase 3: Physical Efficiency Test (PET)
