How to Raise an Objection

1. Open ssc.gov.in and log in with your Registration Number and Password.
2. Open your response sheet and the tentative answer key. Print the response sheet first, because SSC says it will not be available after the deadline.
3. Compare each answer you marked with the key. The question order on this screen can differ from your exam, so match questions by their content, not their number.
4. Pick the questions you want to challenge and pay Rs 50 for each one.
5. Submit before 04:00 PM on 12.10.2026. Nothing sent after that time will be looked at.

Note: Only online objections are accepted. The notice does not name the exact buttons or menus on the portal, so follow the on-screen options. SSC’s detailed guidelines for the challenge system are in its notice dated 10.04.2026 on ssc.gov.in.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Do not leave it for the last afternoon. SSC will not entertain any objection received after 04:00 PM on 12.10.2026, under any circumstances.
• Do not send your objection by email, post or any other route. SSC accepts it only online, through the portal.
• Do not trust the question number alone. On the challenge screen the order of questions and options is the same for everyone in a shift, so it may not match your exam paper, although the answers you marked are shown correctly.
• Print or save your response sheet now. SSC will not give it again, and it will not take individual requests for a copy later.
• Do not share the saved question paper. SSC allows it for your own use and self-analysis only, and you agree to this when you log in.
• Count the cost before you submit. Every question you challenge is Rs 50, so challenge only the answers you are sure about.
