SSC CPO SI 2024 Paper I Answer Key

SSC CPO SI 2024 Paper I Answer Key is a answer key release covered on this page. The key figures are an application window closing 28 March 2024 and a fee of ₹500 for unreserved candidates. Everything below — dates, eligibility, fee and the official links — is set out in the order you will need it.

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) recruits for Group B and Group C posts across central government departments. SSC selections are computer-based, normally multi-tier, and use normalised scores across shifts — the raw mark you calculate from the answer key is not the mark used for the cut-off.

Applications open on 04 March 2024 and close on 28 March 2024, giving candidates 25 days to complete the process. The 25-day window is comfortable, though last-day traffic still causes portal failures every cycle — applying in the first half avoids it. Fee payment closes on 29/03/2024 — note that this can fall on a different day from the form deadline, and an unpaid form is not a submitted form. A correction window is listed (30-31 March 2024), so errors in the submitted form can be fixed within that period rather than by re-applying. The exam is currently shown for 27-29 June 2024; treat this as provisional until the admit card confirms it.

The age limit runs from 20 to 25 years for unreserved candidates. That is a 5-year band, so candidates near either edge should confirm the exact cut-off date the notification measures age against — it is usually a fixed reference date, not the date you apply. On qualifications, the notification states: Delhi SI : Bachelor Degree in Any Stream with Driving License Other Post : Bachelor Degree in Any Stream in Any Recognized University in India.  . If your degree is an equivalent under a different name, look for the equivalence clause in the official PDF before paying the fee — a form rejected for a qualification mismatch is not usually refundable.

SC / ST / EXs and All Category Female are exempt from the application fee under this notification. Fee-paying categories are charged between ₹100 and ₹500, depending on category. Payment is accepted via debit card, credit card, and net banking. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

Work out a provisional score from the official key before the objection window closes. Objections generally require a fee per question and supporting evidence, and are only worth raising where you can cite a source. Do not use unofficial keys circulating on social media to estimate cut-offs — they are frequently wrong on exactly the disputed questions.
