Candidates can make the online fee payment until January 1, 2026. A correction window will be available from January 8 to January 10, 2026, for any necessary modifications. To be eligible, applicants must have passed the Matriculation or Class 10 examination from a recognised Board or University on or before the cut-off date, January 1, 2026.
Candidates applying for SSC GD recruitment must be citizens of India. Since vacancies in CAPFs and Assam Rifles are allocated on a State/UT/area-wise basis, applicants are required to submit a domicile certificate or Permanent Residence Certificate (PRC) corresponding to their state or Union Territory of residence.
For age eligibility, the crucial date for reckoning is January 1, 2026, in line with the provisions of DoP&T OM No. 14017/70/87-Estt. (RR) dated July 14, 1988. Accordingly, candidates must be between 18 and 23 years of age as on January 1, 2026—that is, born not earlier than January 2, 2003 and not later than January 1, 2008.
All posts under the SSC GD recruitment carry a pay scale at Pay Level–3, ranging from Rs 21,700 to Rs 69,100.
The SSC GD selection process involves several stages to ensure a fair and comprehensive evaluation of candidates. It begins with a Computer-Based Examination (CBE), followed by the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST). Shortlisted candidates must then undergo a Detailed Medical Examination (DME) and Document Verification.
The SSC has advised applicants to carefully read the official notification and ensure they meet all eligibility criteria before submitting their applications.
