UPSC CSE, WBCS and OAS Recent Results from APTI PLUS Academy: A Detailed Analysis

For a Civil Services coaching institute, one result can show a strong year. Consistent results across UPSC CSE, WBCS and OPSC OAS show something much bigger - the ability to prepare aspirants for different examination patterns, different stages and different state-specific requirements.

APTI PLUS Academy’s latest published results present that wider picture.

In UPSC CSE 2025, APTI PLUS reported 56+ final selections, including candidates such as AIR 100 Sattwik Satyakam Devta, AIR 217 Ankit Agrawal, AIR 285 Sai Raman Patra and AIR 341 Vishal Pattanayak. In WBCS 2023, the academy produced Rank 1 along with 35+ Group A & B selections. In OPSC OAS 2024, APTI PLUS reported 133+ selections out of 200 recommended candidates, including Rank 1 Bubun Sahoo.

The result story is backed by a specific academic model: Delhi-based UPSC faculty, experienced WBCS and OPSC faculty, subject-wise teaching, test series, daily answer writing, 1:1 feedback, mentorship and interview guidance.

APTI PLUS currently highlights 25+ experienced faculty members from Delhi, with its faculty pages listing educators with extensive experience, including several with 15+ years and some with more than 20 or 40 years of teaching experience.

For aspirants looking for UPSC coaching in Kolkata, UPSC coaching in Bhubaneswar, WBCS coaching in Kolkata or OPSC OAS coaching in Bhubaneswar, these results and the academic structure behind them provide a useful picture of APTI PLUS’s Civil Services preparation ecosystem.

UPSC CSE 2025 Results: 56+ Final Selections

The UPSC Civil Services Examination (CSE) requires candidates to clear three stages — Prelims, Mains and the Personality Test — before entering the final merit list.

For UPSC CSE 2025, APTI PLUS reported 56+ final selections. Before the final result, the academy had 20 candidates reach the Personality Test stage, including 12 candidates from West Bengal and 8 from Odisha.

APTI PLUS UPSC CSE 2025 Rank Holders

These names are part of APTI PLUS’s published UPSC CSE 2025 success list.

AIR 100 Sattwik Satyakam Devta

One of the prominent UPSC CSE 2025 results was Sattwik Satyakam Devta’s AIR 100.

His result is particularly relevant for Odisha aspirants because his preparation journey was associated with APTI PLUS Bhubaneswar. He had appeared for UPSC multiple times and had Sociology as his optional subject. APTI PLUS also highlights its Interview Guidance Programme in his preparation journey.

This is important because UPSC preparation does not end after clearing Prelims or Mains. The final Personality Test requires a different form of preparation involving mock interviews, profile-based questions, communication, awareness and balanced judgement.

UPSC CSE 2024: AIR 48 and a Wider Rank Base

The UPSC CSE 2025 result followed another strong performance in the previous cycle.

APTI PLUS’s UPSC success archive highlights 77+ selections in UPSC CSE 2024, with rankers including AIR 13, AIR 16, AIR 24, AIR 36 and AIR 48.

Among the notable names was Ritika Rath, AIR 48.

Other APTI PLUS rank holders included:

• AIR 170 – Urmi Sinha
• AIR 320 – Amit Meena
• AIR 355 – Vivek Shukla
• AIR 489 – Aashish Kumar
• AIR 659 – Raunak Sharma
• AIR 789 – Rajdeep Ghosh
• AIR 840 – Rishita Das

Rajdeep Ghosh’s journey is particularly relevant to candidates preparing for both UPSC and WBCS. He had earlier secured Rank 72 in WBCS 2022 before achieving AIR 789 in UPSC CSE 2024.

His journey demonstrates the value of an integrated preparation strategy. The common foundation across Indian Polity, History, Geography, Economy, Environment, Current Affairs, Ethics and Essay can support preparation for both national and state Civil Services examinations.

Delhi-Based UPSC Faculty in Kolkata and Bhubaneswar

A major differentiator of APTI PLUS is its faculty structure.

The academy states that its UPSC faculty in Kolkata and Bhubaneswar are from Delhi, while its WBCS and OPSC-specific preparation is supported by dedicated state-level faculty. Its current UPSC faculty page describes the team as having 13+ years of average experience, with several individual educators having 15+ years or substantially more.

The faculty includes:

• Neeraj Nachiketa – Science & Technology, Environment and Anthropology Optional – 15+ years
• Shweta Singh – CSAT Comprehension, Social Issues & Social Justice, Essay and Sociology Optional – 17+ years
• Ayussh Sanghi – Indian Economy – 12+ years
• Akhilesh Srivastava – Geography GS and Optional – 13+ years
• Dr. Vivek Kaushik – Polity, Governance, IRS & IS and PSIR Optional – 13+ years
• Sanjay Bhardwaj – Modern History and World History – 23+ years
• Sat Prakash Sharma – Ancient, Medieval, Modern and World History – 15+ years
• Gopal Krishna Panda – Geography and Disaster Management – 40+ years
• K. Hidaythulla – General Science – 14 years

APTI PLUS also highlights faculty experience associated with established Civil Services coaching institutions. The academy specifically references backgrounds connected with Vajiram & Ravi, Vision IAS, Shubhra Ranjan, ALS IAS, Rau’s IAS and Drishti IAS.

This gives aspirants in Kolkata and Bhubaneswar access to experienced Delhi-based educators without having to move to Delhi for UPSC coaching.

WBCS 2023 Results: Rank 1 and 35+ Group A & B Selections

The West Bengal Civil Service Examination (WBCS) requires a different preparation strategy from UPSC because candidates must also address West Bengal-specific requirements.

APTI PLUS reported 35+ Group A & B selections in WBCS 2023, with Sreeja Namasharma securing Rank 1. Its broader WBCS result record also includes 25+ Top-50 ranks across five years and 150+ selections from 2021–2025, according to its current success page.

WBCS 2023 Top Rankers

• Rank 1 – Sreeja Namasharma
• Rank 3 – Adrija Dey
• Rank 14 – Sayanti Ghosh
• Rank 28 – Tulip Ghosh
• Rank 32 – Monami Sarkar
• Rank 43 – Pranito Baidya
• Rank 48 – Tathagata Batabyal
• Rank 65 – Sayantan Ghosh
• Rank 219 – Soumen Purkait

The result is not limited to one topper. The ranks extend across different positions, demonstrating performance across the WBCS merit list.

The official West Bengal Public Service Commission also records Sreeja Namasharma in its recommendation related to the WBCS 2023 Group B service.

WBCS Preparation with West Bengal-Specific Faculty

APTI PLUS’s WBCS faculty team is separate from its Delhi-based UPSC faculty.

The current WBCS faculty includes:

• Partha Chatterjee – Indian Polity – 15+ years
• Sukamal Mishra – Economy – 18+ years
• Soumen Mukherjee – English Composition & Comprehension – 17+ years
• Pinaki Chatterjee – Biology & Environment – 14+ years
• Sumit Sharan – Reasoning & Mathematics – 12 years

This matters because WBCS preparation cannot simply copy UPSC preparation.

APTI PLUS’s integrated UPSC-WBCS programme specifically includes West Bengal Geography, West Bengal History, West Bengal Budget, English and Bengali alongside the common Civil Services subjects.

The current WBCS programme also includes 900+ hours of GS classes, 11,000+ MCQs, daily answer writing and two years of continued support across offline, online and hybrid modes.

OPSC OAS 2024 Results: 133+ Selections and Rank 1

The third major result story comes from Odisha.

In the OPSC OAS 2024 examination, APTI PLUS reported 133+ selections out of 200 recommended candidates. The academy’s result page records:

• 133+ total selections
• 6 selections in the Top 10
• 12 selections in the Top 20
• 27 selections in the Top 50
• 67 selections in the Top 100

APTI PLUS OPSC OAS 2024 Top Rankers

• Rank 1 – Bubun Sahoo
• Rank 3 – Jitamitra Sahu
• Rank 4 – Kanak Jain
• Rank 5 – Sangram Pradhan
• Rank 8 – Nitesh K. Barik
• Rank 10 – Itishree Jena
• Rank 11 – Anil Kumar
• Rank 12 – Atasi Aparajita
• Rank 14 – O. M. P. Sahoo
• Rank 15 – Suman Gupta
• Rank 16 – B. Biswaprakash
• Rank 20 – Swagatika Dhal

The scale of the result is important. Six candidates in the Top 10 and 67 in the Top 100 demonstrate that the OPSC OAS result was not built around a single Rank 1 candidate.

OPSC OAS Faculty: Delhi Experts + Odisha-Specific Preparation

APTI PLUS’s OPSC faculty page lists a combination of Delhi-based educators and experienced faculty for Odisha-specific preparation.

The panel includes:

• Neeraj Nachiketa – Science & Technology, Environment and Anthropology Optional – 15+ years
• Shweta Singh – CSAT, Social Issues & Social Justice, Essay and Sociology Optional – 17+ years
• Akhilesh Srivastava – Geography GS + Optional – 13+ years
• Dr. Vivek Kaushik – Polity, Governance and PSIR Optional – 13+ years
• Sanjay Bhardwaj – Modern and World History – 23+ years
• Deepak Gauda – Indian Economy – 13+ years
• Dharmendra Arya – Ethics – 13+ years
• Sat Prakash Sharma – Ancient, Medieval, Modern and World History – 15+ years
• Gopal Krishna Panda – Odisha General Studies – 40+ years

This is especially relevant to candidates looking for OPSC coaching in Bhubaneswar. The preparation combines Delhi-based expertise for core Civil Services subjects with Odisha-specific General Studies.

OPSC OAS 2023: 280+ Selections and 12 Top-20 Ranks

The OPSC OAS 2024 result follows another major result cycle.

In OPSC OAS 2023, APTI PLUS reported:

• 280+ final selections
• 12 candidates in the Top 20
• 76 candidates in the Top 100

The academy’s published success list included candidates from different programmes, including classroom coaching, Mains Guidance, Test Series and Interview Guidance.

Among them were:

• Rank 7 – Shailendra Kumar Bhoi
• Rank 49 – Jyotirmayee Swain
• Rank 57 – Biswajit Mohanty
• Rank 178 – Rajashree Ojha
• Rank 325 – Sasmita Sethy

This programme diversity is important. A successful candidate does not necessarily have to complete one long classroom programme from beginning to end. APTI PLUS’s result base includes students who used Foundation Courses, Mains Guidance, Prelims & Mains Test Series and Interview Guidance at different stages of their preparation.

What Is Specific About APTI PLUS’s Civil Services Preparation?

The results become more meaningful when combined with the actual academic resources offered.

1. 25+ Delhi Faculty and Experienced Subject Specialists

APTI PLUS highlights 25+ experienced faculty members from Delhi, with named educators teaching specific UPSC subjects. Several faculty members have 15+ years of experience, while Sanjay Bhardwaj has 23+ years and Gopal Krishna Panda has 40+ years.

2. 1000+ Hours for Integrated UPSC-OPSC Preparation

The current 1-Year UPSC and OPSC Integrated Programme includes 1000+ hours of Prelims and Mains classes, along with GS, CSAT, Essay, Language Paper, Test Series and Mentorship.

3. 12,000+ MCQs and Daily Tests

The same programme includes 12,000+ MCQs, descriptive papers and daily tests, aligned with the latest UPSC and OPSC examination pattern.

4. 15,000+ MCQs and Daily Answer Writing for UPSC-WBCS

The current integrated UPSC-WBCS programme lists 15,000+ MCQs and daily answer writing, alongside dedicated West Bengal-specific preparation.

5. Mains Answer Writing and 1:1 Feedback

The academy’s preparation model includes daily answer writing, evaluation and personalised feedback. This is particularly important for UPSC Mains, WBCS Mains and OPSC Mains, where candidates must convert knowledge into structured answers under strict time limits.

6. Interview Guidance

The Personality Test is treated as a separate stage of preparation. For UPSC CSE 2025, candidates who reached the interview stage appeared for mock interviews designed to replicate the actual UPSC interview environment.

UPSC, WBCS and OPSC Preparation Under One Ecosystem

The three examinations have substantial overlap, but they are not identical.

For UPSC CSE, preparation focuses on national-level General Studies, CSAT, Essay, Ethics, Optional Subjects, Mains answer writing and Personality Test preparation.

For WBCS, the common GS foundation is supplemented by West Bengal History, West Bengal Geography, West Bengal Budget, Bengali, English and other state-specific requirements.

For OPSC OAS, aspirants need Odisha-specific preparation in addition to core Civil Services subjects, including Odisha General Studies. APTI PLUS specifically lists Odisha General Studies under Gopal Krishna Panda’s faculty profile.

This makes the combination of Delhi UPSC faculty + West Bengal faculty + Odisha faculty central to the academy’s positioning across Eastern India.

Conclusion: APTI PLUS Results Across UPSC, WBCS and OPSC

The latest published results present APTI PLUS Academy as an institute with a broad Civil Services result base across UPSC CSE, WBCS and OPSC OAS.

The numbers are substantial: 56+ UPSC CSE 2025 selections, AIR 100 in UPSC CSE 2025, AIR 48 in UPSC CSE 2024, Rank 1 in WBCS 2023, 35+ WBCS Group A & B selections, 133+ OPSC OAS 2024 selections and Rank 1 in OPSC OAS 2024.

But the more useful story is what sits behind these results.

APTI PLUS brings together 25+ Delhi-based faculty, several educators with 15+ years of experience, subject specialists with 20–40+ years of experience, dedicated WBCS faculty, Odisha-specific OPSC faculty, 1000+ hours of integrated UPSC-OPSC classes, thousands of MCQs, daily answer writing, test series, personalised evaluation, mentorship and interview guidance.

For aspirants searching for UPSC coaching in Kolkata, UPSC coaching in Bhubaneswar, WBCS coaching in Kolkata or OPSC OAS coaching in Bhubaneswar, the combination of results, experienced faculty and examination-specific preparation makes APTI PLUS’s approach worth evaluating.

Admissions Open for Civil Services Foundation Programmes

APTI PLUS currently offers UPSC Foundation, UPSC-WBCS Integrated, UPSC-OPSC Integrated, WBCS and OPSC OAS programmes, along with Prelims & Mains Test Series, Mains Guidance, Interview Guidance and Optional Subject preparation.

The academy’s current website also advertises scholarships of up to ₹25,000 for eligible aspirants.
