Expected Tier I Cut-offs (Analysis-Based Estimates)
IB MTS is known for having a competitive but not extremely high cut-off, partly because of the large applicant pool and the 4-subject spread. General Awareness (40 marks) determines a lot — candidates who score well there generally clear comfortably. Based on previous IB MTS cycles and the reported difficulty level of the January 2026 paper:
| Category | Expected Cut-off Range (out of 100) |
|---|---|
| UR / General | 55–67 marks |
| EWS | 52–64 marks |
| OBC | 50–60 marks |
| SC | 45–55 marks |
| ST | 40–50 marks |
| PwBD | 30–40 marks |
These are estimates based on previous cycles and reported paper difficulty. Official cut-offs will be published by IB after the Tier II stage.
Tier II — What to Prepare
The Tier II is a 60-minute offline descriptive test worth 50 marks. You only need to score 20/50 to qualify — it does not affect your merit rank. The test has three components:
- Essay Writing: Write a short essay (200–250 words) on a general topic — social issues, current events, national importance. Focus on structure: introduction, 2–3 main points, conclusion. Simple and correct English beats flowery but error-prone writing.
- Letter / Application Writing: Formal letter to an authority, or a job application. Know the correct format — date, address, subject line, salutation, body, sign-off.
- Comprehension: A passage is given, followed by questions. Read once for gist, then re-read for specific answers. Answers are typically directly from the passage.
For candidates who cleared Tier I comfortably, Tier II prep of 1–2 weeks is sufficient. Practice writing 2–3 essays and letters. Focus on not making basic grammar errors — tense consistency, subject-verb agreement, punctuation.
Document Verification — What to Arrange Now
Start collecting these documents as soon as Tier I result is confirmed. Don't wait for Tier II:
- Class 10 Certificate (for Date of Birth proof)
- Class 10 Marksheet
- Aadhaar Card (original + photocopy)
- Caste Certificate (SC/OBC/ST — issued by competent authority in prescribed format)
- EWS Certificate (if applicable — issued on or after April 2025)
- PwBD Certificate from CMO/Civil Surgeon (if applicable)
- Discharge Certificate (Ex-Servicemen, if applicable)
- Domicile Certificate (state-issued)
- Passport-size photographs (same as uploaded at registration — carry 6–8 copies)

MHA IB MTS 2025 — What You Need to Know After Tier I
The Intelligence Bureau (IB) Tier I result is now out. If your roll number appears in the merit list PDF on mha.gov.in, you are shortlisted for Tier II — the next and final written stage before document verification. Here's everything you need to know to move forward.
Tier I Was the Hard Part — Tier II Is Different
A lot of students stress equally about Tier II, but it works very differently. Tier I (100 marks CBT) is what determines your final merit rank. Tier II is a qualifying test only — you need a minimum of 20 out of 50 marks to pass, but your Tier II marks do not count toward your final selection. Your rank is already set by Tier I.
Tier II is a one-hour offline descriptive test covering essay writing, letter/application drafting, and English comprehension. If your English basics are intact — grammar, simple sentences, paragraph structure — clearing 20/50 is very achievable. The bar is set to filter out candidates with very poor written communication, not to rank them.
How Many Candidates Are Called for Tier II?
IB typically shortlists candidates at a ratio of roughly 10× the number of vacancies for the next stage. With 362 posts, expect approximately 3,500–4,000 candidates to be called for Tier II. Some SIBs with higher vacancy counts may have a slightly higher shortlist ratio.
What Is the IB MTS Job Actually Like?
IB MTS is a Group C, Central Government post under the Ministry of Home Affairs. The pay is Pay Matrix Level 1 (₹18,000 – ₹56,900) basic, with a significant additional benefit — a 20% Special Security Allowance (SSA) on basic pay, which is unique to intelligence and security-related roles and is not available in most other government MTS/Group C posts.
| Component | Amount (Approx.) |
|---|---|
| Basic Pay (Level 1) | ₹18,000/month |
| Special Security Allowance (20%) | ₹3,600/month |
| DA (Dearness Allowance ~55%) | ₹9,900/month |
| HRA (8–27% depending on city) | ₹1,440–₹4,860/month |
| Gross In-Hand (approx.) | ₹28,000–₹34,000/month |
The posting is across 37 Subsidiary Intelligence Bureaux (SIBs) spread across India. As a central government employee you also get CGHS health coverage, LTC, government quarter (subject to availability), and a full pension under NPS.
