Are PET/PST marks counted toward SSC GD final merit?

No. PET (Physical Efficiency Test) and PST (Physical Standard Test) are both qualifying only -- final selection is based purely on CBE (written exam) marks.

Is weight still a PST rejection criterion for SSC GD?

No, per recent Ministry of Home Affairs guidelines -- weight is no longer assessed at the PST stage. Instead, it's evaluated at the medical examination stage based on BMI, with a standard qualifying range of 18-25.
