SSC CGL Tier 1 Answer Key 2025: The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) is expected to release the answer key for the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Tier 1 Examination 2025 today on its official website.
The Tier 1 exam was conducted over 15 days across 255 centres in 126 cities. Around 13.5 lakh candidates appeared for the exam out of 28 lakh registered candidates.
For a few candidates, including those whose exams were disrupted due to a fire incident at a Mumbai centre, and those against whom the Commission found ambiguous evidence of malpractice, the exams were rescheduled for October 14.
"In cases where such evidence is ambiguous, to set the record straight, candidates will appear for a re-exam to be held on 14th October 2025. Such vigilance to tackle remote takeover attempts will continue by deploying relevant technical solutions. Candidates whose exam was affected by the Mumbai fire incident of 26th September will also have their exam on 14th October 2025," the notice stated.
The Commission had earlier mentioned in its September 26 notice that "the challenge for CGLE questions will commence around 15th October."
Once released, candidates can access the provisional answer key and response sheet through the "Answer Key" section on the SSC website. They will also be able to raise objections within a specified timeline by paying the prescribed fee.
