Based on my own experience and hearsay evidence from friends and relatives, the range could be between 1 week and 4 months. This range from ministries to stat boards.
Recently (in the past 1 or 2 years), they seem to be more punctual as in if they say "within 2 weeks", you will get an answer within 2 weeks. But if you don't hear from them by the 12th day, be prepared to receive a rejection email. For my relative's case (early this year) they called him up within 10 days from the day of interview to offer him the position.
