SSC CGL 2025 notification delayed: Check latest updates and key details here

SSC CGL notification 2025: The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has officially deferred the release of the SSC CGL 2025 notification, previously scheduled for April 22. The move has triggered uncertainty among lakhs of government job aspirants nationwide who had been awaiting the annual recruitment announcement with high expectations.
In a public notice issued on its official portal, the Commission stated that a revised annual examination calendar will be published shortly. This update not only affects the SSC CGL 2025 cycle but also disrupts the broader timeline for other SSC-conducted examinations.
Revised calendar in the works
According to the SSC, a fresh schedule is being prepared and will be uploaded on the official website — www.ssc.gov.in. The revised calendar is expected to outline updated dates for notifications, applications, and examinations for all major recruitment drives, including the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Examination.
The Commission has not specified the reasons behind the delay, leaving aspirants in the dark regarding timelines and application planning. The absence of clarity has raised concerns over potential scheduling overlaps and administrative bottlenecks in the coming months.
Why SSC CGL matters
The Combined Graduate Level Examination is SSC’s flagship recruitment test, conducted annually to fill Group “B” and Group “C” positions across premier government departments — including the Income Tax Department, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Customs, and others. For graduates across the country, the exam is a high-stakes opportunity for stable employment in the public sector.
Lakhs of candidates prepare year-round for the exam, drawn by the promise of job security, career progression, and competitive pay. The delay in the notification disrupts their preparation strategy and application timelines.
What candidates should expect
Once the notification is released, it will contain detailed information on:
- Eligibility criteria (educational qualification, age limits, etc.)
- Revised exam pattern and syllabus
Candidates are advised to stay tuned to the official website to get the complete details of the SSC CGL notification 2025.
