Reason Behind Delay in Result Announcement
Recently, SSC Chairman S. Gopalakrishnan told NDTV that the Tier 1 results would be available on or before the last week of December 2025. He pointed out that the delay was caused by the fact that almost 4,500 questions from 45 different papers were under scrutiny due to the objections raised by the candidates.
Each objection is verified by the concerned paper setters. SSC only comes to the decision when all the verifications have been done and the necessary corrections have been made.
