The SSC CHSL final result 2026 is out. The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has

declared the Final Result of the Combined Higher Secondary (10+2) Level

Examination, 2025 on 7 October 2026 on its official website, ssc.gov.in.

Candidates who appeared in Tier-II can now check the merit list. One point

causes a lot of confusion, so it is worth stating clearly at the start: this is

the final result of the CHSLE 2025 cycle, declared in 2026. It is not the result

of a new CHSL 2026 examination. Anyone searching for the SSC CHSL final result

2026 should therefore look for the CHSLE 2025 final result write-up on the SSC

website, and not for a fresh 2026 exam cycle.

SSC CHSL stands for Staff Selection Commission Combined Higher Secondary Level

examination. It is a national-level exam conducted by SSC for recruitment to

LDC, JSA, and DEO posts — Lower Division Clerk, Junior Secretariat Assistant,

and Data Entry Operator — in various government ministries, departments, and

organisations. The selection process runs in stages: Tier-I, then Tier-II, then

Document Verification, and finally the Final Merit List. In this cycle, the

Tier-II exam was held on 10 April 2026, and the final result followed on

7 October 2026.

For candidates asking how to check the SSC CHSL final result, the process is

simple and needs no login. Visit the official website at ssc.gov.in. On the

homepage, go to the Results section. Click on the link titled "Combined Higher

Secondary (10+2) Level Examination, 2025: Declaration of Final Result". Open

the final result / merit list PDF. To check the SSC CHSL final result

roll-number-wise, use Ctrl + F to search your Roll Number in the merit list

PDF. If your roll number appears, your name is in the recommended list.

Download and save the PDF for future reference, because you will need it again

when the next stage begins.

The headline numbers of the SSC CHSL final result 2026 answer the question

every candidate asks first: how many candidates were recommended? A total of

3,515 candidates were recommended against 3,522 vacancies, and 3 results were

withheld. The post-wise allocation adds up to the same total. LDC / JSA,

including Clerk-cum-Typist, accounts for 3,396 recommended candidates. DEO /

DEO Grade ‘A’ accounts for 30. JHAA accounts for 89. Together, 3,396 plus 30

plus 89 gives 3,515, which is the total recommended figure in the official

write-up.

The SSC CHSL final cut off 2026 is the other part of the result that every

candidate checks. The cut-off is the Tier-II marks of the last selected

candidate for each post code and category, as given in the official SSC

final-result write-up. Cut-offs differ by post code and category, so a

candidate should check the row for their own post code and category rather

than comparing with a single overall figure. Post codes D54–D56 are DEO /

DEO Grade ‘A’ posts. Post codes L01–L52 are LDC / JSA posts, and L35 also

covers Clerk-cum-Typist. Post code L53 is the JHAA post. Where the write-up

shows a dash for a post code and category, it means the write-up does not list

a cut-off for that combination. The full category-wise and post-wise cut-off

table is given in the SSC CHSL Final Cut Off section of this post, taken from

the official write-up.

Candidates going through the merit list may come across the terms "fresh rank"

and "FRTA rank". As per the official write-up, fresh ranks have been allotted

to the candidates included in the final result. FRTA stands for First Round of

Tentative Allocation, the tentative allocation declared on 17.08.2026. The

fresh ranks in the final result follow that earlier tentative allocation.

Selection, however, is not the end of the process. Document Verification is

the next stage after the final result, as per the selection process. DV and

appointment formalities are carried out by the department or office to which a

candidate has been allocated. If a candidate does not receive any

correspondence from the allocated department within six months of the

declaration of the final result, the candidate should contact the user

department immediately thereafter. SSC will not entertain correspondence

regarding DV and appointment formalities, so selected candidates should deal

directly with their allocated department. The write-up also states that there

is no reserve list or waiting list, and vacancies left unfilled for any reason

will be carried forward to the next year’s examination. SSC states that the

e-dossier of recommended candidates is being sent to the user departments.

In short, candidates who want to check the SSC CHSL final result 2026 should

go to the official website ssc.gov.in, open the merit list PDF from the

Important Links section of this post, and search it roll-number-wise with

Ctrl + F. They should then check the SSC CHSL final cut off for their own post

code and category, note their allocation, and keep the PDF safe. Selected

candidates should watch for communication from their allocated department

about Document Verification, and if nothing arrives within six months of the

result, they should contact that department directly.
