The Staff Selection Commission released the SSC CGL Tier 1 admit card for candidates appearing on September 30, 2026. Hall tickets are available for download at ssc.gov.in using the candidate's registration number and password. The Tier 1 exam runs from September 30 to October 30, 2026.

Times Now reports 10,731 vacancies for this recruitment drive. Hindustan Times reports 12,256 vacancies. Both outlets agree the exam is objective type with 100 questions worth 200 marks, a one-hour duration, and a negative marking of 0.50 marks per wrong answer. Candidates should check their admit card for errors and contact the Commission for corrections.
The two outlets are effectively running the same wire-style service story: release steps, exam schedule and vacancy numbers. Times Now says 10,731 vacancies, Hindustan Times says 12,256. Neither source explains the discrepancy. The number matters directly to lakhs of candidates tracking cut-offs, and the silence from both sides leaves the confusion unaddressed. The Commission has not yet clarified the correct figure. Today's admit card release is routine, the count that matters is the official vacancy notification the SSC must publish before the exam begins on September 30.
