SSC CGL 2025 notification delayed: Check latest updates and key details here
SSC CGL notification 2025: The
Staff Selection Commission
(SSC) has officially deferred the release of the
SSC CGL 2025 notification
, previously scheduled for April 22. The move has triggered uncertainty among lakhs of
government job aspirants
nationwide who had been awaiting the annual recruitment announcement with high expectations.
In a public notice issued on its official portal, the Commission stated that a revised annual examination calendar will be published shortly. This update not only affects the SSC CGL 2025 cycle but also disrupts the broader timeline for other SSC-conducted examinations.
Revised calendar in the works
According to the SSC, a fresh schedule is being prepared and will be uploaded on the official website — www.ssc.gov.in. The revised calendar is expected to outline updated dates for notifications, applications, and examinations for all major recruitment drives, including the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Examination.
The Commission has not specified the reasons behind the delay, leaving aspirants in the dark regarding timelines and application planning. The absence of clarity has raised concerns over potential scheduling overlaps and administrative bottlenecks in the coming months.
Why SSC CGL matters
The
Combined Graduate Level Examination
is SSC's flagship recruitment test, conducted annually to fill Group 'B' and Group 'C' positions across premier government departments — including the Income Tax Department, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Customs, and others. For graduates across the country, the exam is a high-stakes opportunity for stable employment in the public sector.
Lakhs of candidates prepare year-round for the exam, drawn by the promise of job security, career progression, and competitive pay. The delay in the notification disrupts their preparation strategy and application timelines.
What candidates should expect
Once the notification is released, it will contain detailed information on:
Number of vacancies
Application deadlines
Eligibility criteria (educational qualification, age limits, etc.)
Revised exam pattern and syllabus
Candidates are advised to stay tuned to the official website to get the complete details of the SSC CGL notification 2025.

Barry Eichengreen: Trump's trade offensive echoes Thatcher's Falklands War
Next Story Barry Eichengreen Quick surrenders abound. China, Brazil and Canada may have stood firm, but it's a surprise how many US trade partners have taken Trump's trade aggression lying down. The EU's case glares out. Did it calculate that tit-for-tat tariffs would be self-damaging? Something that US President Donald Trump's trade war and Thatcher's Falklands War have in common is their utility in distracting attention from their instigators' domestic problems. Gift this article US President Donald Trump's trade war resembles nothing so much as UK prime minister Margaret Thatcher's Falklands War in 1982: one side deploys massive force and the other withdraws with its tail between its legs. Of 57 countries and territories included in Trump's 'Liberation Day' list of targets for 'reciprocal' tariffs, just three—Brazil, Canada and China—credibly threatened retaliation. US President Donald Trump's trade war resembles nothing so much as UK prime minister Margaret Thatcher's Falklands War in 1982: one side deploys massive force and the other withdraws with its tail between its legs. Of 57 countries and territories included in Trump's 'Liberation Day' list of targets for 'reciprocal' tariffs, just three—Brazil, Canada and China—credibly threatened retaliation. The Heard and McDonald Islands, populated only by penguins, were understandably supine. But it is more than a little surprising that so many others have taken US aggression lying down. Also Read: The EU needn't have yielded to the US on a trade deal The European Commission's agreement with the US is especially stunning. It has accepted Trump's 15% baseline tariff, with exemptions only for aircraft parts, critical minerals and a couple of other items. US duties on steel, copper and aluminium remain at 50%. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has pledged that Europe will buy additional US energy and invest $600 billion in the US. In return, the EU receives basically nothing, only a US promise not to impose still higher tariffs, at least for now. Moreover, the deal enhances US exporters' access to European markets, while Europe's exporters face additional barriers in the US. The outcome is widely seen as a sign of the EU's weakness. The Commission had to negotiate an agreement on behalf of 27 countries with different positions on how aggressively Europe should respond. In France, there was considerable support for the idea that it was important to face down a bully. In Germany, by contrast, policy was shaped by automotive and machinery industries desperate to retain access to the US market on terms at least not grossly inferior to those obtained by Japan, South Korea and the UK. These differences left the Commission with little wiggle room. Then there is the fact that the EU continues to rely on the US for weaponry and that it needs America's help in supporting Ukraine. Europe likewise lacks a pressure point analogous to China's control of rare earth refining, which allows the Chinese government to threaten retaliation by cutting off an essential input required by US high-tech industries and by the country's defence complex. Finally, like other economies contemplating how to respond, Europe faces a 'madman' problem. Normally, the strongest argument for retaliating is to deter further aggression. A rational leader will understand that launching a trade war, much like launching a conventional war, will provoke a counter-attack in which his country suffers as much as his opponent's. But then, this strategy works only when leaders are rational. Trump's trade-policy decisions are clearly guided by an irrational belief in tariffs—'the most beautiful word in the dictionary," as he puts it—and by the perverse satisfaction he derives from punishing opponents and even allies, regardless of the costs borne by the US itself. Negotiators, not only in Europe, had good reason to fear that Trump would meet retaliation with retaliation, resulting in further damage. Also Read: Mint Explainer: Why does the EU keep sanctioning Russia? There is, however, a contrary view that Europe has shown strength, not weakness. Meeting tariffs with tariffs, especially when these have no deterrent effect, is simply a way of shooting oneself in the economic foot. Higher import prices fuel inflation and thus hurt consumers, while taxing imported inputs, as the US is doing, makes domestic production more costly and less efficient. At the same time, less import competition encourages rent seeking: domestic producers will lobby for tariff concessions and make campaign contributions to obtain them. Thus, Europe has shown its wisdom in shunning self-destructive measures. It now needs to follow up by ratifying its free trade agreement with Latin America's Mercosur bloc, solidifying its trade relations with China and recommitting itself to the multilateral trading system, whether the US participates or not. Something else that Trump's trade war and Thatcher's Falklands War have in common is their utility in distracting attention from their instigators' domestic problems—in Thatcher's case an unemployment crisis and in Trump's the questions about his ties with the convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who hanged himself while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges. Helped by her victory in the South Atlantic, Margaret Thatcher would reign for eight more years. The US Constitution prevents Trump from serving as president until 2033.
