SSC CGL cutoff is the minimum marks that a candidate needs to qualify for their respective stage/tier of the exam. In other words, we can say that the SSC CGL cutoff is the marks of the last selected candidate in a particular category. These marks differ for each post group. SSC CGL cutoff depends on the number of vacancies in the exam. A higher number of vacancies means a lower cutoff for each stage of the exam because the Commission will be required to select a higher number of candidates in each stage.

No, the cutoff is not released region-wise. It is released centrally on the official website of the commission. The SSC select the candidates based on the test conducted at the all-India level. The regional offices come into the picture for the release of admit cards and document verification only.
