What’s New — Admit Card Snapshot (14 September 2026) |
|
| The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has released the admit card for Selection Post Phase-XIV 2026 on 14 September 2026, roughly a week after the exam city intimation slip went out on 8 September. The Computer-Based Test (CBT) will run from 16 to 26 September 2026, across multiple shifts and multiple days — one of SSC’s longer exam windows, reflecting the large candidate volume this recruitment typically attracts across its 3,003 notified vacancies spanning Matriculation, Higher Secondary, and Graduate-level posts in numerous central government departments.
Because Selection Post exams cover dozens of distinct post codes across different departments — each with its own qualification, pay level, and sometimes physical or medical standards — candidates should treat their own post code’s requirements as the ones that matter, rather than assuming a single common rule applies to everyone appearing in this phase. |

How to Download SSC Selection Post Phase-XIV Admit Card 2026
Note: Admit cards for Selection Post exams are sometimes released region-wise by SSC’s Regional Offices rather than all at once centrally — if you don’t see your admit card on the main portal, also check your applicable Regional SSC website (based on the region you applied under). |
|
Details Mentioned on the Admit Card
Important: Verify every field the moment you download the admit card. If there’s any discrepancy — name spelling, photo, exam centre, or category — contact your SSC Regional Office immediately rather than waiting until exam day. |

CBT Exam Pattern 2026 |
|
| Part | Subject / Questions / Marks |
| A | General Intelligence & Reasoning — 25 Questions, 50 Marks |
| B | General Awareness — 25 Questions, 50 Marks |
| C | Quantitative Aptitude — 25 Questions, 50 Marks |
| D | English Language/Comprehension — 25 Questions, 50 Marks |
| Total | 100 Questions, 200 Marks |
| Duration | 60 Minutes (80 Minutes for PwD/Scribe-eligible candidates) |
| Negative Marking | 0.50 marks deducted per wrong answer |
| Also worth knowing: SSC runs Phase-XIV as three separate Computer-Based Examinations — one each for Matriculation-level, Higher Secondary-level, and Graduate-and-above-level posts — since paper difficulty is calibrated to the post’s required qualification. Some exam-prep sources also report that this cycle introduced a stricter sectional time limit (around 15 minutes per section) instead of the more flexible overall-60-minute timing used in earlier phases; since this isn’t independently confirmed by SSC’s own admit card notice reviewed here, candidates should verify their exact timing structure from their own admit card/instructions on exam day rather than assume either format. | |
Eligibility Recap — Post Levels, Age & Qualification |
|
| Level | Qualification / Typical Age Band |
| Matriculation | 10th Pass | Typically 18–25 years |
| Higher Secondary | 12th Pass | Typically 18–27 years |
| Graduate | Bachelor’s Degree | Typically 18–30 years (some posts up to 35–42 years) |
| Important: Selection Post recruitment covers dozens of individual post codes, and each carries its own specific age limit, qualification, and sometimes physical/medical standard — the ranges above are indicative only. Since applications are already closed, this is provided for reference; candidates should rely on their own applied post code’s criteria from the notification, not this general summary. | |
Pay Levels — General ReferenceSelection Post covers a wide range of Group ‘B’ (Non-Gazetted) and Group ‘C’ posts, each mapped to its own 7th CPC Pay Level depending on the specific role and department. As general reference points commonly seen in past Selection Post cycles: |
|
| Illustrative Post Category | Pay Level / Approx. Basic Pay Range |
| Multi-Tasking/Entry-Level Support Staff | Level 1 | ₹18,000 – ₹56,900 |
| LDC / Junior Secretariat Assistant-type | Level 2 | ₹19,900 – ₹63,200 |
| UDC / Senior Clerk-type | Level 4 | ₹25,500 – ₹81,100 |
| Treat these as illustrative only — the actual pay level for your specific post code (which can range up to Level 7 or 8 for some Group ‘B’ roles) is stated in the original notification against that code, plus applicable DA, HRA, TA, and other allowances under 7th CPC norms. | |
