SSC CGL Tier 1 Answer Key 2025 Expected by October 20.
New Delhi: The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) is all set to release the SSC CGL Tier 1 Answer Key 2025 soon on its official website, ssc.gov.in. The Tier 1 examination was conducted across multiple days from September 12 to September 26, while the rescheduled exam took place on October 14 at selected centres across India.
Candidates who appeared in the rescheduled session received their City Intimation Slip on October 5, followed by their admit cards on October 9. According to official updates, the tentative answer key for SSC CGL Tier 1 is likely to be released by October 20, 2025.
Once published, candidates will be able to download the provisional answer key and raise objections against any incorrect answers within a limited time frame.
This year, SSC introduced a positive change by reducing the answer key objection fee to ₹50 per question. In addition, the Commission has also announced that candidates whose objections are found valid will receive a refund of the objection fee, a move aimed at making the process fair and candidate-friendly.
After evaluating all objections, SSC will release the final answer key along with the Tier 1 results. Only those who qualify based on the Tier 1 cutoff will move on to Tier 2, the next stage of the recruitment process.
