The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) conducts the Combined Higher Secondary Level (CHSL) exam every year to recruit candidates for posts like Lower Division Clerk (LDC), Data Entry Operator (DEO) & more. Recently, aspirants have been wondering whether the SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 exam will take place as scheduled in September 2025, owing to several changes in other SSC exam schedules. In this article, we provide the latest updates, key dates, and important information regarding SSC CHSL 2025.
Latest Update on SSC CHSL 2025 Exam
According to the SSC CHSL Exam Tier 1 2025 is scheduled from 8th September to 18th September 2025. As of now, there has been no official announcement regarding postponement. Candidates are advised to follow the official SSC website for real-time updates. Despite the recent rescheduling of the SSC CGL Exam 2025, there is no news regarding the CHSL Exam.
Is SSC CHSL Tier-I 2025 Likely to Be Postponed?
Although there is no official announcement, speculations are that tier 1 of SSC CHSL Exam 2025 might face a delay. One of the main reason why the speculations are the recent rescheduling of the SSC CGL Tier-I exam, which has been pushed to early September due to technical and operational glitches.
Possible Reasons Why SSC CHSL Might Be Postponed?
Below are the potential reasons why SSC CHSL might get postponed:
- Shared Infrastructure: Since both CGL and CHSL depend on the same computer-based testing system, exam centers, infrastructure, and security measures, the revised CGL schedule being so close to CHSL has raised concerns about whether SSC can efficiently conduct both exams within such a short gap.
- Technical Glitches in Previous Exams: SSC has faced criticism in the past for server slowdowns, login issues, and exam-day disruptions. To avoid repeating such mistakes and to safeguard exam integrity, authorities may prefer pushing CHSL further.
- Overlapping Exam Calendar: September and October are already packed months for various central and state-level recruitment exams. To prevent a clash of schedules for candidates as well as exam centers, SSC might consider adjusting CHSL dates.
