This article talks about, SSC CGL Tier-1 Re-Exam 2025 and it’s related details, accompanied by Exam Schedule and Admit Card

The SSC CGL (Combined Graduate Level) exam is one of India’s biggest government job exams, conducted to recruit candidates for Group B and Group C posts in various ministries and departments.

The Tier-1 exam was held between September 12 and 26, 2025, but due to technical issues, server errors, and even a fire at a few centres, the Staff Selection Commission (SSC) decided to conduct a re-exam for affected candidates.

This ensures fairness for all aspirants.

Key Dates & Notices

  • The regular Tier-1 exam: 12 to 26 September 2025.
  • Some exam centers faced issues (technical errors, fire, etc.), leading to the cancellation of tests at those places.
  • The re-exam for those affected is now scheduled for October 14, 2025.
  • On October 15, the provisional answer key for the re-exam will also be released, along with an objection window (you can raise objections to questions) for a fee.

Who Gets the Re-Exam?

Only candidates whose exams were disrupted due to technical issues or force majeure (like the fire) in specific centers will be eligible for the re-exam. SSC created a feedback portal for such candidates to register their problems and verify complaints.

Exam Timing & Shifts

The original Tier-1 exam was held across 260 centres in 129 cities
Three shifts were used every exam day:
