SSC CGL 2026 Tier 1 Answer Key, Response Sheets Released (Source: Canva) The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has released the provisional answer key and response sheets for the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Tier 1 examination. Candidates who appeared for the exam can access and download them from the official website, ssc.gov.in, using their login credentials. Candidates dissatisfied with the tentative answer key can challenge it until November 7 by providing valid arguments, submitting the requisite documents and paying Rs 50 per question. It must be noted that representations submitted after the prescribed deadline will not be entertained. The Commission also said that the sequence of questions and answer options in the challenge module may differ from what candidates saw during the examination. This is because the questions and options have been arranged in the same sequence for all candidates appearing in a particular shift, regardless of the different sequences they may have seen in the actual examination. Follow the given instructions to access the answer key: SSC has clarified that the saved question paper is strictly for candidates’ personal use and self-analysis. An undertaking to this effect has been included in the Challenge Management portal, which will be visible to the candidates when they log in to the portal. The Commission conducted the CGL Tier 1 examination from September 30 to October 30. Candidates who manage to clear this stage will become eligible for the Tier 2 examination, which is followed by a skill/typing test and document verification.
