Introduction

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has officially announced a re-exam (पुन: परीक्षा) for certain candidates of the SSC CGL 2025 Tier-1 exam. This re-exam will be conducted on 14 October 2025 across selected centres.

⚠️ Important: This re-exam is not for all candidates, but only for those whose earlier exam was disrupted due to technical glitches, administrative issues, or the Mumbai fire incident (26 September 2025).


❓ Why is SSC Conducting a Re-Exam on 14 October?

Here are the main reasons behind the rescheduling:

  • 🔥 Mumbai Fire Incident (26 Sept 2025) – A fire broke out at a centre in Mumbai, disrupting the exam process.
  • Technical Issues – Server failures, login problems, slow systems.
  • 📋 Administrative Mismanagement – Seating errors, delayed starts, poor arrangements.
  • Fairness for All – SSC wants to ensure that every candidate gets an equal chance without being disadvantaged by such incidents.
